Design of Shallow Foundation (Isolated Footings)

Design a square footing for a column size of 400x400. The compression axial load for the load combination of (1.5 DL + 1.5 LL) is 2000 KN. The safe soil bearing capacity is 150 KN/m2 at a depth of 2 metres below E.G.L. Participants are free to go for either a tapered or stepped footing. Besides the total axial load, also…

    Design a square footing for a column size of 400x400. The compression axial load for the load combination of (1.5 DL + 1.5 LL) is 2000 KN. The safe soil bearing capacity is 150 KN/m2 at a depth of 2 metres below E.G.L. Participants are free to go for either a tapered or stepped footing. Besides the total axial load, also account for the self-weight of the footing and soil above it. Assume M25 concrete grade. Do the following checks:

    • If the gross bearing pressure under the footing is within safe bearing capacity
    • Provide sufficient depth and longitudinal steel for resisting bending and shear
    • Sufficient anchorage for column steel into the footing
    • If the bearing pressure at column-footing joint is within 0.45 times the maximum concrete compressive strength

    Provide a simple sketch showing the size of the footing, maximum and minimum depth of the section, flexural reinforcement in both directions and anchorage of column steel.  

    Aim and introduction:To design the square foorting using the given details.

    Procedure:

    Steps:

    Results:Designing the footing using the given details and sketch the reinforcement details in autocad
