QA square spread footing supports an 18 in. square column supporting a service (16) dead load of 400 kips and a service live load of 270 kips. The column is built ‘of $000 psi concrete and and has 8- #9 longitudinal bars with fy = 60,000 psi. Design the footing to be constructed by using fc = 3,000 psi concrete and ‘grade-60 bars, The top of the footing will be covered by 6 in. of fill with a density of 120 psf and a 6 in Basement floor (as shown in figure below). The basement RC floor loading is 100 psf. The allowable bearing pressure on soil is 6000 psf. Use load enhancing factor as 1.2 for dead load, 1.6 for live load ‘and resisting factors (6 ) for shear and flexure as 0.75 and 0.9 respectively. Also check for bearing and development length.

The prestressed wires are centered at the centroid of the section. The concrete has P. = 5 ksi (i = 6), Pu = 4 kei (at the time of transfer).
