A 4.0 m square footing is proposed to be used to support a 766 mm x 766 mm RC column loaded with 550 kN dead load and 590 kN live load. The bottom of the footing is 2 m below the ground. Assume soil weighs 19 kN/m³ and the allowable soil bearing pressure is 307 kPa. The thickness of the footing is 563 mm. f'. = 21 MPa and fy = 420 MPa. It is to be reinforced with 20 mm diameter. Use 24 kN/m3 as the unit weight of concrete. Use an effective depth measured from the top of the footing until the center of the bottom-most bar (d1) Calculate the number of bars required in one direction. You Answered Correct Answer 13
Calculate the number of steel bars #6 in a square footing necessary to resist a factored moment of Mu = 60 T-m. The footing has the following characteristics. B = 2.6 m, Fy = 4200 kg/cm2, f'c = 250 kg/cm2, d = 42.5 cm. Assume that the footing is ductile and you can use the reduction factor of 0.9 O 12 O 14 O 21 O 17
A building will have a factored column load of 300 kN. The column is to be supported on a square spread footing underlain by a soil with the follow properties: c' = 5 kPa, o' 35°, y = 18.5 kN/m³. The groundwater table is at a depth of 15 m and the footing will be located 0.5 m below the ground surface. Determine the required footing size if Þ = 0.5. Use Terzaghi's bearing capacity equation for a square footing. Solve for 'B', making sure to use the reduction factor Þ; trial and error is the easiest way to solve for 'B'. Recommend a "reasonable" dimension for construction/design purposes.
