FIG. 1C POSITION OF RING BEAM FOR MINIMUM VALVE OF

THE MAXIMUM MOMENTS
5.2 In case the annular circular raft with a ring beam, two conditions
are ,gcnerally to be satisfied. The maximum pressure under foundation
should not exceed the safe allowable bearing pressure of the soil. The
minimum pressure shall be zero or of a compressive nature. To satisfy
these, the clirnensions of rafts shall be determined as follows:

where

A = ~_____
gall - ( PO - PI )
where
w ~- total weight of the structure above ground
b= eccentricity of the vertical load on base due to over-
turning moment of lateral loads of wind or earthquake
n= outer radius of annular raft or radius of solid raft
b = inner radius of annular raft
.t area of raft
x ( & - 62 )
gall = net safe bearing capacity of soil at base
PO Q overburden pressure due to depth of foundation
PI = net pressure clesired at base.
