9.4 Pad footings are being considered for a building design. Determine the required plan dimensions and draw an appropriate shape for each case to support the indicated column loads. The allowable soil bearing pressure is 7,000 psf. a) An interior column having a total dead plus live load of 650 kips b) Perimeter columns at 18 ft on-center spacing, located 20 inch from property line. Each column has a design dead plus live load of 410 kips.

What are the Application for Design—The Extended Bearing Capacity Equation?
A reinforced concrete column of cross-section (300x300) mm2 supports an axial dead load PG =800 kN and an axial live load of PQ =700 kN. The column is supported on a reinforced concrete spread footing founded on soil having an allowable bearing capacity of qa = 100 kPa. It has been decided to use concrete for the footing having f’c = 32 MPa and that cross-sectional area of steel reinforcement to be used should satisfy pmin = (Ast/bd)min= 1.4/fsy, or greater as required for strength, with 30 mm concrete cover to reinforcement (N 20 bar). If the effects of any moments in the column and the self-weight of the column and the footing are to be ignored: Determine the footing total depth (D) (mm) (Hints: Use Shear to calculate the d. D=d+cover +N20/2)
