The projection of plain concrete footing from walls is the distance that the footing extends beyond the wall. The depth of footing is the distance from the top of the footing to the bottom of the footing.<\/p>\n<p>The formula for the depth of footing is $D = \\frac{q}{B}$, where $q$ is the bearing capacity of soil, $B$ is the projection of plain concrete footing from walls, and $D$ is the depth of footing.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, $q = 10 \\text{ tonnes}\/\\text{cm}^2$ and $B = a \\text{ cm}$. Therefore, the depth of footing is $D = \\frac{10 \\text{ tonnes}\/\\text{cm}^2}{a \\text{ cm}} = 0.775 a$.<\/p>\n<p>Option A is incorrect because it is too small.
