Question
Determine the ultimate soil pressure at the base (if soil pressure is uniform). a. 145.57 kPa b. 227.38 kPa c. 183.25 kPa d. 257.45 kPa choose the best answer
A rectangular column footing is to be designed to carry the following column loads:
PDL = 850 kN
MDL 160 kN - m
=
PLL = 690 KN
==
MLL = 190 kN - m
The column is 500mm x 500m and is reinforced with 8-25 mm bars. The base of the footing is 1.6 m
below the natural grade and the and the effective soil bearing capacity may be conservatively taken as
190 kPa. Assume L=1.4B and fc 27.6 MPa and fy = 414 MPa. Use 75 mm as steel covering.
