This document provides soil bearing capacity information for a tailings storage facility project in Tuba, Benguet, Philippines. It includes the soil unit weight, angle of friction, cohesion, water table level, and calculations for factors of safety. Tables show the ultimate and allowable bearing capacities for square footings of varying depths and widths, with allowable capacities being one-third of the ultimate values.
