DESIGN OF ISOLATED FOOTING

DL1=86.86kN

DL2=76.404kN

LL1=31.143kN

SEISMIC=29.72kN

Mdl + Mll=7.3324kN

Assumed Soil Bearing Capacity=110kPa

Assume d = 225 mm

All loads are the maximum value calculated using STAAD, and were considered in the design of footing.

To determine the dimension of footing


Note : 1/3 increase in bearing pressure is allowed for wind and earthquake loads.
