Can someone familiar with bearing capacity help me out here? The NCEES sample questions and solutions for the Civil - Geotechnical section consistently leaves out the depth of footing (Df) term in their solutions. Specifically in question 526 regarding a 7 ft deep mat footing, the solution disregards the Df term. Any ideas why? Haven't seen this in any other practice problems or solutions. THANKS!
