A square footing (2 m $\times$ 2 m ) is subject to an inclined point load, P as shown in the figure below. The water table is located well below the base of the footing. Considering one way eccentricity, the net safe load carrying capacity of the footing for a factor of safety of 3.0 is __ kN.



The following factor may be used:

Bearing capacity factors : $N_q$ = 33.3, $N_{\gamma }$ = 37.16,

shape factors : $F_{qs}$ = $F_{\gamma }$${}_s$ = 1.314

Depth factors : $F_{qd}$ = $F_{\gamma }$${}_d$ = 1.113

Inclination factors : $F_{qi}=0.444,F_{\gamma }$${}_i$ = 0.02
