Bearing Pressures For Rectangular Footings With Biaxial Uplift - (Mcad12) PDF
1.0 DESCRIPTION:
Purpose
The purpose of this calculation sheet is to solve for design parameters of a footing, which will result in easie
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.
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.

Sliding
Sliding of foundations in response to design earthquake forces is usually very limited (fractions of a centimeter)
and is typically considered as positive behavior. Sliding of foundations limits forces introduced into the structure,
and therefore need not be checked. However, sliding of non anchored equipment and other nonstructural items
could cause damage and should be checked.

Overturning of foundations in response to design earthquake loads is to be checked on an allowable stress basi
using allowable stress load combinations. A factor of safety of 1.0 should be used considering only 90% of the
dead load for resistance. The 0.9 factor accounts for uncertainty of the dead load and upward vertical acceleratio
FSOT = 1.2 ==> 25% of the soil compressed under the foundation
= 1.5 ==> 50% of the soil compressed under the foundation
