Question 7: For a given plan in the Figure 6, (a) Carry out design calculations for the mat foundation. (b) Calculate the soil pressure at the centre of the columns and extremities of columns (i.e. the column edges at the bounds). (c) Determine the thickness of the foundation at column \( \mathrm{C} 2 \) by DTSC. (d) Check the rigidity by along columns \( \mathrm{D} \) and \( \mathrm{F} \) (strip width \( 300 \mathrm{~cm} \) ). (e) Plot the SFD and \( \mathrm{BMD} \) along with design for grid \( \mathrm{D} \) and \( \mathrm{F} \). Table 1. Column Loads.
