If q is the punching shear resistance per unit area a, is the side of a square footing for a column of side b, carrying a weight W including the weight of the footing, the depth D. of the footing from punching shear consideration, is____________________?

If q is the punching shear resistance per unit area a, is the side of a square footing for a column of side b, carrying a weight W including the weight of the footing, the depth D. of the footing from punching shear consideration, is____________________?

A. D = W (a – b)/4a²bq
B. D = W (a² – b²)/4a²bq
C. D = W (a² – b²)/8a²bq
D. D = W (a² – b²)/4abq
