The factor W' takes into account, the effect of the water
table. If the water table is at or below a depth of +B,
measured from the ground surface, =1. If the water table
rises to the base of the footing or above, =0.5. If the water
table lies in between then the value is obtained by linear
interpolation.
The shape factors given by Hansen and inclination factors as
given by Vesic are used.
