I think it should be E.

e < d/6 = there is no tension failure.

Overall kern zone lies in one-third dimension for square and rectangle so d/6 or b/6 on every side on center.

I agree and the correct option is E.

Answer E. The Correct answer e<b/6.

It is given range. So it will be 1/3 rd "Middle third rule".

For rectangular column.
limit of eccentricity=z/a ,z=bd3/12*d/2.
A=b*d.
:For rectangular column, e=d/6.
For circular column, e=d/8(by z/A).
limit of eccentricity=z/a ,z=bd3/12*d/2.
A=b*d.
:For rectangular column, e=d/6.
For circular column, e=d/8(by z/A).

ANSWER: E. One-sixth of the base on either side of the centroid.
MIDDLE THIRD RULE FOR RECTANGULAR SECTION The range within which the load may be applied so as not to produce tensile stress anywhere in the section is within the middle third of depth Limiting eccentricity 6/40.
