4.2. Design Calculation of Isolated Footing at Point 18: D.L 42.78k, L.L 6.9k

1) The document summarizes the design calculation of an isolated square footing to support a 12"x12" column. 2) The 4'x4' footing is designed to support 42.78 kips of dead load and 6.9 kips of live load. 3) Reinforcement of 3 #16mm bars spaced at 3" centers is determined to be required based on the moment and bearing capacity calculations.

4.2. Design Calculation of Isolated Footing At Point 18


Design calculation of isolated footing with required area footing size is as follow.

D.L=42.78k, L.L=6.9k

4ʹ

(1) Design information,


fcʹ = 3000 psi
fy = 60000 psi
column size = 12ʹʹ x 12ʹʹ
foundation depth = 4ʹ
By soil test result, ɤ = 123.51 lb/ft3
Allowable soil bearing pressure, qu = 1.7 t/ft2
= 3808 psf
= 3.808 ksf
(2) Design procedure
(a) Depth of fill = 4 -1 = 3ʹ
weight of fill = 3 x 123.51 = 370.53 psf
weight of footing = 12/12 x 150 = 150 psf
520.53 psf
Effective bearing pressure, qe = qa – 520.53 psf
= 3808 – 520.53
= 3287.5 psf = 3.288 ksf
(b) Compute required footing area and choose footing
