Chapter 5 Footing Design - Engineering
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. Following are typical requirements: The calculated bearing pressures need to be less than the allowable bearing pressures.
