A concrete column carries an axial load of $$450$$ $$kN$$ and a bending moment of $$60$$ $$kN$$-$$m$$ at its base. An isolated footing of size $$2m \times 3m$$ side along the plane of the bending moment is provided under the column. Centers of gravity of column and footing coincide. The net maximum and the minimum pressures in $$kN/{m^2}$$ on soil under the footing are respectively.
