Question 3: A footing as shown in Figure 3 (shaded area only) is loaded to a uniform intensity of 100 $\mathrm{kPa}$. (i) Determine the increase in vertical stress that occurs at a depth of $1.5\mathrm{m}$ below point $\mathbf{A}$ using Newmark's chart. Also, determine the increase in vertical stress using any another suitable method. Comment on the results that you have obtained using these two methods. Figure 3
