1. A 400 mm concrete wall supports a DL= 200 kN and LL =146 kN. The allowable bearing pressure is 216 kPa at the level bottom of the footing which is H-1.2m below the grade. Weight of concrete is 24 kN/m^3 and that of soil is 16kN/m^3. Thickness of footing is 300mm with an effective depth of 225mm. use load combination of U=1.4DL+1.7LL f'c-28 MPa, fy=248MPa. Use 28 mm diameter reinforcing bars. Normal weight concrete λ=1.0 a. Determine the effective soil pressure b. Find the width of the wall footing c. Compute the spacing of 28mm diameter steel reinforcement
