A square footing of 2 m sides rests on the surface of a homogeneous soil bed having the properties: cohesion c = 24 kPa, angle of internal friction φ = 25° and unit weight γ = 18 kN/m3. Terzaghi's bearing capacity factors for φ = 25° are Nc = 25.1, Nq = 12.7, Nγ = 9.7, N'c = 14.8, N'q = 5.6 and N'γ = 3.2. The ultimate bearing capacity of the foundation (in kPa, round off to 2 decimal places) is _______.
Correct : 920.00 to 925.00 or 350.00 to 356.00
