Consider the following statements related to ultimate bearing capacity of footing based on the SPT and CPT values:
1. The empirical correlations established in the USA between N and soil properties indicate the value of N conforms to certain standard energy ratios.
2. The value of N to be used for getting ϕ is the corrected value for standard energy.
3. The angle ϕ obtained by this method can't be used for obtaining the bearing capacity factors.
