A square column 393 mm x 393 mm rests on a square footing. The column supports a dead load of 1,124 kN and a live load of 848 kN. The soil bearing capacity is 301.6 kPa. The base of the footing is 1.72 m below the ground. Assume unit weight of concrete of 24 kN/m³ and unit weight of soil of 16.14 kN/m³. The footing has a thickness of 632 mm and the centroid of the main bars is 100 mm from the bottom of the footing. Use fc' = 26.44 MPa, fy = 248 MPa. Calculate the number of required number of 16 mm ¢ bars

Design of Shallow Footing Question: (see photo) Note: Avoid rounding off values in the course of solution proper as much as possible.
A square column 393 mm x 393 mm
rests on a square footing. The
column supports a dead load of
1,124 kN and a live load of 848 kN.
The soil bearing capacity is 301.6
kPa. The base of the footing is 1.72
m below the ground. Assume unit
weight of concrete of 24 kN/m³ and
unit weight of soil of 16.14 kN/m³.
The footing has a thickness of 632
mm and the centroid of the main
bars is 100 mm from the bottom of
the footing. Use fc' = 26.44 MPa, fy =
248 MPa.
Calculate the number of required
number of 16 mm o bars
Note: Present the width (B) in
multiples of 100 mm.
