The distance from the resultant of the column forces to the center of column B is given as:
x=
Center of gravity of the two footings should coincide with the resultant of the two column loads
to ensure uniform soil pressure below the two footings.
Taking moments of footing areas about the center of column B,
AA (6 + 0.2 L1 / 2 ) = ( AA + AB ) x
B L1 (6.2 L1 / 2) = (B L1 + B L2 ) x
x=
