A 450 mm x 500 mm column supports a dead load of 1000 kN and a live load of 780 kN. The allowable soil bearing pressure is 250 KPa. The base of footing is 1.6 m below the grade. Assume weight of concrete to be 23.5 KN/m3 and the soil has a porosity of 0.35 and specific gravity of 2.6. The total depth of footing is 525 mm with an effective depth of 450 mm. Above the natural ground surface is a 5 m high tank half-filled with water. Determine: a. Dimension of the footing b. Adequacy in terms of beam shear and punching shear c. steel reinforcement area
