ANALYSIS
CHECK OVERTURNING FACTOR (IBC 06 1605.2.1, 1801.2.1, & ASCE 7-05 12.13.4)
F = MR / MO = 1.25 > 1.4 x 0.75 / 0.9 for seismic [Satisfactory]
Where Pf = 36.25 kips (footing self weight)
MO = F (h + D) + M = 1625 ft-kips (overturning moment)
MR = (Pr,DL) (L1 + a) + Pf (0.5 L) + Pw (L1 + 0.5Lw) = 2023 ft-kips (resisting moment without live load)

CHECK SOIL CAPACITY (ALLOWABLE STRESS DESIGN)

Ps = 25 kips (soil weight in footing size)
P = (Pr,DL + Pr,LL) + Pw + (Pf - Ps) = 246.85 kips (total vertical net load)
MR = (Pr,DL + Pr, LL) (L1 + a) + Pf (0.5 L) + Pw (L1 + 0.5Lw) = 3398 ft-kips (resisting moment with live load)
e = 0.5 L - (MR - MO) / P = 5.32 ft (eccentricity from middle of footing)

CHECK FOOTING CAPACITY (STRENGTH DESIGN)

Mu,R = 1.2 [Pr,DL (L1 + a) + Pf (0.5 L) + Pw (L1 + 0.5Lw)] + 0.5 Pr, LL(L1 + a) = 3115 ft-kips
Mu,o = 1.4 [F(h + D) + M] = 2275 ft-kips
Pu = 1.2 (Pr,DL + Pf + Pw ) + 0.5 Pr, LL = 249 kips
eu = 0.5L - (Mu,R - Mu,O) / Pu = 9.13 ft
