The weight of the mat is 55 MN. Since each silo is filled independently, the resultant load imposed on the mat does not necessarily act through the centroid. Evaluate the various loading conditions and determine whether centrally loaded, one-way eccentric loaded, and two-way eccentric loading requirements will be met. If these requirements are not met, determine the minimum mat width, B, needed to satisfy these requirements.
