Design of Pedestal

Size of bearing = 500 x 320 mm

Size of pedestal = 800 x 620 mm

Grade of concrete = M 30
Alllowable compressive stress = 7.5 Mpa

Area of bearing = 160000 MM2

Area of PEDESTAL = 496000 MM3
sqrt(A/A1) = 1.760682 < 2
Allowable bearing stress = 13.21 N/mm²

( As per BD
Pressure generated = 72 kg/cm2 drawind)
= 7.2 N/mm²
< 13.21
ok
Min reinfocement required=0.15 % for pedestal = 0.0015 x 496000
= 744 mm2

By providing reinforcment = 12 @ 100 c/

Reinforcement area on single face = 7x 113.097

= 791.68 mm2
Hence providing #12 @ 100 c/c satisfy the minimum reinforcment criteria
