315B - Stress Distribution in Soil - Part 3

The document describes a circular area with a radius of 10 feet that is subjected to a uniformly distributed load of 2000 lb/ft^2. It requests calculating the vertical stress increase at various radial distances (r=0, 2, 4, 8, 12 feet) and a depth of 5 feet. It also describes a rectangular loaded area with a uniformly distributed load of 100 kN/m^2 and requests calculating the vertical stress increase at a depth of 2 meters below several specified points.

Solution
Point A is located at a depth 3 m
below the bottom of the footing. The
plan of the square footing has been
replotted to a scale of 3 m and placed
on the influence chart (Figure 10.29)
in such a way that point A on the plan
falls directly over the center of the
chart. The number of elements inside
the outline of the plan is about 48.5.
