fc’= 25 Mpa and fy= 420 MPa for the column and the footing, Column
dimensions 40 x 40 cm.
a) eccentricity of the resultant load and soil pressures at points A, B, C, D, E and F.
Soil pressures. All less than allowable
bearing pressure.
d) adjusted average soil pressure and the adjusted column loads for strip ABC, using a strip width of 2m.
Due to eccentricity of R for strip
ABC, the pressure distribution
needs to be reconsidered.
e) Plot of Shear and Moment diagrams for strip ABC, design moments for longitudinal direction.
Example exact solution using Microsoft Excel.
