A site is underlain by a soil that has a unit weight of 118


A site is underlain by a soil that has a unit weight of 118 lb/ft^3. From laboratory shear strenght tests that closely simulated the field conditions, the total stress parameters were measured to be C_T=250 lb/ft^2 and φ_T=29degrees. Estimate the shear strength on a horizontal plane at a depth of 12 ft below the ground surface at this site.
