SITUATION Design a square column footing for a
400-mmsquare tied interior column that supports a dead load of
890kNand a live load of
710kN. The column is reinforced with
8pcs25-mm-diameter longitudinal bars, the base of the footing is
1.6mbelow grade, and the soil weighs
15.7k(N)/(m^(3)). The allowable soil pressure is
240kPa. Use concrete strength of
21MPaand reinforcement strength of
420MPa. Provide the following: Calculation for the footing design in shear check and flexure reinforcement. Calculation for the design of development for footing reinforcement. Use
\psi _(t)=\psi _(e)=\psi _(s)=\lambda =1.0and assume that the bars are spaced
300mmon centers leaving 150
mmon each side. Check
C_(b)and let
K_(tr)=0. Provide detailing sketch similar to the given example.
