FOUNDATION
It is the part of structure which serves exclusively to transmit loads on to the sub-soil.
It can be studied broadly into two headings
❖ Shallow Foundation
❖ Deep Foundation
SHALLOW FOUNDATION
Spread footings or pad foundations
Strap Footings
Combined Footings
Raft or Mat Foundation

SHALLOW FOUNDATION
It is a structural system that can safely transfer loads from superstructure to the subsoil
at shallow depths.
Its depth is less than the width of the foundation
Majority of the load is transferred bearing (base resistance)
Important Design Considerations
❖ Bearing Capacity
▪ It is the ultimate load a soil can take just before the complete failure
❖ Settlement
▪ Total settlement below a footing which should not exceed tolerable limits

BEARING CAPACITY
Ultimate Bearing Pressure

❖ It is the pressure at which the foundation would fail in shear. A bearing capacity failure is
defined as foundation failure that occurs when the shear stresses in the soil exceed the
shear strength of the soil or continue to settle.
Presumed Bearing Pressure
❖ It is the pressure with an adequate factor of safety ignoring factors such as
foundation width, degree of settlement, etc.
Allowable Soil Pressure
❖ It is a pressure of which having taken account of factors such

as settlement, water table, etc

1.1 Revisit the recently discussed problem on the design of square footing. Solve with actual numbers
computed.
1.2 Revisit the recently discussed problem on the design of square footing. Solve with actual numbers
computed. By this time, for beam shear Vc, use (0.17 λ) instead of (1/6). Recompute the punching
shear Vc as well, use (0.33 λ) instead of (1/3). The λ = 1.0 for normal weight concrete.
2. CE Board Exam May 2007

A column 450 mm x 450 mm square supports a dead load of 1000 kN and a live load of 780 kN. The
allowable soil bearing pressure is 240 kPa. The base of the footing is 1.5 m below the grade. Assume
weight of concrete to be 24 kN/m3 and that of soil to be 18 kN/m3. The total depth of footing is 600 mm
with a steel covering of 100 mm. Determine the moment at critical section.
3. CE Board Exam May 2009

A column 400 mm x 400 mm supports a dead load of 890 kN and a live load of 720 kN. The
allowable soil bearing pressure is 250 kPa. The base of the footing is 1.5 m below the grade. Assume
weight of concrete as 24 kN/m3 and that of soil is 16 kN/m3. The total depth of footing is 560 mm and
has an effective depth of 460 mm. Compute the shear stress for a two-way shear or punching.
Please Be Noted that for all footing design undertakings we will utilize
(0.17 λ) instead of (1/6) and (0.33 λ) instead of (1/3)
