Design of Isolated Mat

The footing is designed to support a column with a load of 1500 kN. The size of the footing is determined to be 2m x 3m to support the load safely based on calculations of bearing capacity and soil pressure. The depth is calculated as 550mm based on moment and shear strength considerations. Reinforcement of 16mm bars at 160mm centres is provided in the long direction of the footing and 12mm bars at 150mm centres in the short direction to resist the bending moments and satisfy code requirements. Shear stress checks show the stresses are within permissible limits.

DESIGN OF FOOTING(ISOLATED MAT)

1.DATA:
Pu = 1500 KN
column size
b= 300 mm
D= 500 mm
p= 185 KN/m2
fck = 20 KN/mm2
fy = 415 KN/mm2

2.SIZE OF FOOTING:

Load of column= 1500 KN


self weight of footing (10%)= 150 KN
total factored load=Wu = 1650 KN

footing area = Wu /(1.5*p) = 5.95 m


2

proportion the footing area in the same proportion as the sides of the column.
hence (b/100)x * (D/100)x = footing area

x= 0.63

short side = 1.89


long side = 3.15

adopt size of footing


x= 2m
y= 3m

factored soil pressure at base is computed as :

pu = Pu/(x*y) = 250 <(1.5*p)= 277.5

hence the footing area is adequate since the soil pressure developed at
the base is less than the factored bearing capacity of the soil

3.FACTORED BENDING MOMENT:

cantilver projection from the short side face of the column a =


cantilver projection from the long side face of the column =
bending moment at short side face of column is (0.5*p u*L2)=
bending moment at long side face of column is (0.5*p u*L2)=

4.DEPTH OF FOOTING:

From moment consideration we have :


Mu=0.138fckbd2
d= 266.02 mm

from shear strength considerations we have critical section for one way
shear is located at a distance d from the face of column

shear force per metre width (longer direction)is :


τc = 0.36
Vul = pu(a-d)N pt = 0.25
τc = (Vul/b*d )

by solving d= 512.3 mm

hence adopt d = 550 mm


overall depth D = 600 mm

5.REINFORCEMENT IN FOOTING:
Longer direction:

Mu = 0.87. fy. Ast d  f y . A stx 


 1  
 f ck .bd 

Ast= 1023.6 mm
2

dia of bar= 16
no of bar= 5.0934369 6
Ast=
adopt 16mm dia bar at 16m dia bar at 160mm centres

shorter direction:

by solving Ast = 463.1


ratio of long to short side=β= 1.5
reinforcement in central band width of short span
(y/(β+1)2Ast= 740.99
minimum reinforcement=0.0012*b*D= 1440 > 740.99
dia of bar= 12
no f bar= 7 =7nos
hence provide 12mm diameter bars at 150mm centres

6.CHECK FOR SHEAR STRESS:


The sritical section for one way shear is located at a distance d from the
face of the column .
Ultimate shear force per metre width in the longer direction is:
Vu=Pu*0.7= 175
100Ast/bd= 0.22
refer table 19 of IS 456-2000
ks= 1
τc= 0.33
ks*τc = 0.33 N/mm2
nominal shear stress = τv= Vu/bd= 0.32 N/mm
2

since τv<ks*τc shear stresses are within the safe permissible limits.
