A 300 mm concrete wall supported a dead load of 210kN/m and a live load of 145kN/m The allowable soil bearing pressure is 210kPa. The wall footing has an effective depth of 225 mm and a total depth of 300 mm. The bottom of the footing is 1.2 m below the grade. Use fc' = 20.73MPa, fy = 276.5MPa. Assume concrete weighs 23.5 kN/m3 and that of soil is 15.7 kN/m3. a. Determine the width of footing b. Determine the value of the bearing pressure for strength design of the footing caused by the factored load? c. Determine the nearest value of the required moment for strength design d Determine the design shear strength per meter of wall
