Net Ult. bearing capacity - Minimum net pressure causing shear failure.
Ultimate bearing capacity - Max gross/net pressure intensity causing shear failure.
Ref. B.C Punmia book
The correct ans is D
Ultimate bearing capacity - Max gross/net pressure intensity causing shear failure.
Ref. B.C Punmia book
The correct ans is D

Ultimate bearing capacity:The minimum gross pressure at the base of the foundation at which soil fails in shear.
Net ultimate bearing capacity:The minimum net pressure that causes shear failure of the soil.
So option c is correct as it I related to net pressure no gross load.
Net ultimate bearing capacity:The minimum net pressure that causes shear failure of the soil.
So option c is correct as it I related to net pressure no gross load.
