What are the Application for Design—The Extended Bearing Capacity Equation?
Given ten (10) units of isolated rectangular footing, 1.20m x 2.00m x 0.30m, reinforced with 10pcs -12mm diameter bars along the 1.20m dimension and 6pcs - 12mm diameter bars along the 2m dimension, (Structural Grade rebar). The depth of excavation is 2m below the natural ground and the soil is sandy loam. Use Class A concrete mixture and concrete cover of 75mm. Assume no wastage. Make a Bid Price in BOQ format.

How to solve the problem, hope that you cant help me. Thank you.
Design a square footing for a 18-in. square column and a superimposed dead load of 200 kips and a live load of 300 kips. The maximum permissible soil pressure is 4000 psf. Use concrete with a design strength of 3 ksi and grade 40 reinforcing bars with yield strength of 40 ksi.
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)

1. Assuming general shear failure and using the Terzaghi equation with a FOS of 4 find the allowable gross bearing load the following footing can sustain: 3ft continuous footing set 3ft below grade in a 28deg phi soil with a c’ of 400psf and a unit wt of 110psf.
A square footing, 1.7 m x 1.7 m, is to be founded at a depth of 1.4 m below the ground surface of a deep clayey sand stratum. The saturated unit weight of the soil is 17 kN/m3. Based on drain triaxial tests, the soil parameters are c' = 7 kPa and ø' = 25°. The ground water table was found at the surface level. The foundation is to carry a permanent load of 280 kN and a variable load of 210 kN.
Develop a spread sheet to compute allowable total vertical column loads using the ASD methodand factored ultimate vertical column loads using LRFD. The spreadsheet should consider onlyvertical loads on a square or continuous footing bearing on single uniform soil. It should allowthe input of footing width, depth, water table depth, soil strength parameters, a factor of safetyfor ASD, and a geotechnical resistance factor for LRFD. It should compute the bearing capacitybased on both Terzaghi’s and Vesic ́’s methods.
If the post is to be erected in a medium clay [maximum soil bear capacity is 250 kPa], and will be placed on top of a square footing weighing 25 kN, what will be the minimum dimension of the footing?
