Footings

Footings
Definition
Footings are structural members used to support
columns and walls and to transmit and distribute
their loads to the soil in such a way that the load
bearing capacity of the soil is not exceeded,
excessive settlement, differential settlement,or
rotation are prevented and adequate safety
against overturning or sliding is maintained.

Types of Footings
Wall footings are used to
support structural walls that
carry loads for other floors
or to support nonstructural
walls.

Types of Footings
Isolated or single footings
are used to support single
columns. This is one of the
most economical types of
footings and is used when
columns are spaced at
relatively long distances.

Types of Footings
Combined footings usually
support two columns, or three
columns not in a row.
Combined footings are used
when two columns are so close
that single footings cannot be
used or when one column is
located at or near a property
line.

Types of Footings
Cantilever or strap footings
consist of two single footings
connected with a beam or a
strap and support two single
columns. This type replaces a
combined footing and is more
economical.

Types of Footings
Continuous footings
support a row of three or
more columns. They have
limited width and continue
under all columns.

Types of Footings
Rafted or mat foundation
consists of one footing usually
placed under the entire building
area. They are used, when soil
bearing capacity is low, column
loads are heavy single footings
cannot be used, piles are not used
and differential settlement must
be reduced.

Types of Footings
Pile caps are thick slabs
used to tie a group of piles
together to support and
transmit column loads to the
piles.

Distribution of Soil Pressure


When the column load P is
applied on the centroid of the
footing, a uniform pressure is
assumed to develop on the soil
surface below the footing area.
However the actual distribution of the soil is not uniform,
but depends on may factors especially the composition of
the soil and degree of flexibility of the footing.

Distribution of Soil Pressure

cohesionless soil.

Design Considerations
Footings must be designed to carry the column loads
and transmit them to the soil safely while satisfying
code limitations.
1. The area of the footing based on the allowable
bearing soil capacity
2. Two-way shear or punch out shear.
3. One-way bearing
4. Bending moment and steel reinforcement
required

Design Considerations
Footings must be designed to carry the column loads
and transmit them to the soil safely while satisfying
code limitations.
1. Bearing capacity of columns at their base
2. Dowel requirements
3. Development length of bars
4. Differential settlement

Size of Footings
The area of footing can be determined from the actual
external loads such that the allowable soil pressure is
not exceeded.

Two-Way Shear (Punching Shear)


For two-way shear in slabs (& footings) Vc is smallest of

Vc = 2 +
f bd
c 0

where, c =
b0 =

ACI 11-35

long side/short side of column concentrated


load or reaction area < 2
length of critical perimeter around the
column

When > 2 the allowable Vc is reduced.

Design of two-way shear


1. Assume d.
2. Determine b0.
b0 = 4(c+d)

for square columns


where one side = c

b0 = 2(c1+d) +2(c2+d)
for rectangular
columns of sides c1
and c2.

Design of two-way shear


3. The shear force Vu acts at a
section that has a length
b0 = 4(c+d) or 2(c1+d) +2(c2+d)
and a depth d; the section is
subjected to a vertical downward
load Pu and vertical upward
pressure qu.
Vu = Pu qu ( c + d ) for square columns
2

Vu = Pu qu ( c1 + d )( c2 + d ) for rectangular columns

Design of two-way shear


4. Allowable Vc = 4

f c b0 d

Let Vu=Vc

d=

Vu
4 f c b0

If d is not close to the assumed d,


revise your assumptions

Design of one-way shear


For footings with bending
action in one direction the
critical section is located a
distance d from face of column

Vc = 2 f c b0 d

Design of one-way shear


The ultimate shearing force at
section m-m can be calculated

L c

Vu = qu b d

If no shear reinforcement is to be
used, then d can be checked

Design of one-way shear


If no shear reinforcement is
to be used, then d can be
checked, assuming Vu = Vc

The bending moment in each

Bearing Capacity of Column at


Base
The loads from the column act on the footing at the
base of the column, on an area equal to area of the
column cross-section. Compressive forces are
transferred to the footing directly by bearing on the
concrete. Tensile forces must be resisted by
reinforcement, neglecting any contribution by
concrete.

13

Bearing Capacity of Column at


Base
Force acting on the concrete at the base of the column
must not exceed the bearing strength of the concrete

N1 = (0.85 f c A1 )
where = 0.65 and
A1 =bearing area of column

Bearing Capacity of Column at


Base
The value of the bearing strength may be multiplied by a
factor A2 / A1 2.0 for bearing on footing when the
supporting surface is wider on all sides than the loaded
area.
The modified bearing
strength

N 2 (0.85 f c A1 ) A2 / A1
N 2 2 (0.85 f c A1 )

14

Dowels in Footings
A minimum steel ratio = 0.005 of the column section
as compared to = 0.01 as minimum reinforcement for
the column itself. The number of dowel bars needed is
four these may be placed at the four corners of the
column. The dowel bars are usually extended into the
footing, bent at the ends, and tied to the main footing
reinforcement. The dowel diameter shall not exceed
the diameter of the longitudinal bars in the column by
more than 0.15 in.

Development length of the


Reinforcing Bars
The development length for compression bars was given

ld = 0.02 f y d b /

fc

but not less than

0.003 f y d b 8 in.
Dowel bars must be checked for proper development
length.

Example Combined Loading


A 12-in. x 24 in. column of an unsymmetrical shed is
subjected to an axial load PD of 220 k and MD = 180 k-ft
due to dead load and an an axial load PL = 165 k and a
moment ML= 140 k-ft due to
live load. The base of the
footing is 5 ft below final
grade, and the allowable soil
bearing pressure is 5 k/ft2.
