12. Warnings
- Calculated concrete compression stress exceeds the permissible bearing stress of diameter 0.85f’c per ACI 318 Section 22.8.3.2.

- Designer must exercise own judgement to determine if this design is suitable.

Input data and results must be checked for agreement with the existing circumstances, the standards and guidelines must be checked for plausibility.
