If the length of a combined footing for two columns l metres apart is L and the projection on the
left side of the exterior column is x, then the projection y on the right side of the exterior column,
in order to have a uniformly distributed load, is (where is the distance of centre of gravity of
column loads).
(A) y = L - (l - )
(B) y = L/2 + (l - )
(C) y = L/2 - (l + )
(D) y = L/2 - (l - )
The correct Answer Is
(D) y = L/2 - (l - )
