A concrete column carries an axial load of 450 kN and a bending moment of 60 kN-m at its base. An isolated footing of size 2 m x 3 m, side 3m along the plane of the bending moment, is provided under the column. Centres of gravity of column and footing coincide. The net maximum and the minimum pressures in kN/m2 on soil under the footing are respectively

A concrete column carries an axial load of 450
kN and a bending moment of 60 kN-m at its
base. An isolated footing of size 2 m x 3 m, side
3m along the plane of the bending moment, is
provided under the column. Centres of gravity of
column and footing coincide. The net maximum
and the minimum pressures in kN/m2 on soil under
the footing are respectively
