1.0 DESCRIPTION:
BEARING PRESSURES FOR RECTANGULAR FOOTINGS WITH BIAXIAL UPLIFT.

Purpose

The purpose of this calculation sheet is to solve for design parameters of a footing, which will result in easier
design of footing. The footing is subject to axial load and bearing (biaxial moment). The footing can have a
portion of their footing area that does not act in bearing.

The parameters calculated are:

Combined Forces and Moment at centroid of footing.
Soil bearing pressure.
Maximum bearing pressure.
Bearing pressure at remaining foundation corners.
Location of line of zero pressure.
Percentage of footing area acting in bearing.
Factors of Security (Overturning and Sliding).

Assumptions

The following assumptions are made in the derivation of the results presented in this calculation sheet:
The foundation is rectangular.
The foundation behaves as a rigid body.
The foundation has a planar stress distribution, and the location of zero pressure is therefore linear.
The bearing pressure can only be compressive in nature, and there are no tensile bearing stresses.
