A elongated foundation plate is designed to transfer a vertical load V = 2 MN/m, a horizontal load H = 0.8 MN/m, and a moment load M = 0.8 MNm/m at the foundation level. The foundation is situated 1.5m below the ground surface in silt with a characteristic friction angle of 34 degrees, a characteristic cohesion of 10 kPa, and a unit weight of 21 kN/m^3. The groundwater level is located 2.0m below the ground surface. The foundation design should
