Compute the A) analysis of loads B)total downward load and C)  base area of the footing
A 5.125-ft square, 2.0-ft deep spread footing is subjected to a concentric vertical load of 62.0k and an overturning moment of 30.0 ft-k. The overturning moment acts parallel to one of the sides of the footing, and the top of the footing is flush with the ground surface and the groundwater table is at a depth of 0.5 ft below the ground surface. Determine whether the resultant force acts within the middle third of the footing, compute the minimum and maximum bearing pressures and show the distribution of bearing pressure in a sketch. Determine the size of the equivalent uniformly loaded footing and compute the equivalent bearing pressure. Solution: 1. Preliminary calculation: 1). Area of the footing: A = 2). Self weight of the footing: Wf = 2). Middle third of the footing: B/6 = 3). Pore water pressure at the bottom of the footing due to ground water: u = 2. Check eccentricity: 1). Eccentricity of bearing pressure distribution: e = ft²; kips/ft²; = 3). Thus the bearing pressure…
A square footing supports a 350x350 mm column carrying a deadload of 500kN and Live Load of 560kN. Allowable soil pressure is 210kPa. The bottom of the footing is 1.5m below the grade, Assume average weight of concrete and soil to be 18kN/m3.f’c=20MPa, fy=350MPa. PLEASE ANSWER ALL THANK YOU!
