Chapter 5 Footing Design
1 Chapter 5 Footing Design By S. Ali Mirza1 and William Brant2 Introduction Reinforced concrete foundations, or footings, transmit loads from a structure to the supporting soil. Footings are designed based on the nature of the loading, the properties of the Footing and the properties of the soil. Design of a Footing typically consists of the following steps: 1. Determine the requirements for the Footing , including the loading and the nature of the supported structure. 2. Select options for the Footing and determine the necessary soils parameters. This step is often completed by consulting with a Geotechnical Engineer. 3. The geometry of the foundation is selected so that any minimum requirements based on soils parameters are met.
location for the critical cross-section for one-way shear. ACI 318-05 Chapter 11 provides guidance on selecting the location for the critical cross-section for two-way shear. Chapter 2 of this handbook on shear design also provides further design information and design aids.
