PROBLEM: A wall footing suppports a 300 mm thick reinforced concrete wall with a dead load 292 kN/m. The weight of the footing and soil is assummed to be 20% of the dead load. The soil bearing capacity of the soil is 150kPa. Concrete strength fc = 27.6 MPa and steel strength fy = 276 MPa. Use the ultimate load combination 1.4D+1.7L in your computations.
