    1. The document describes the design process for an eccentric footing. Several solutions were analyzed to address issues with soil pressure, punching shear, and settlement. 2. Expanding the cap, increasing the footing thickness, adding a drop panel, and using a strap beam were some of the solutions tested. 3. The optimal design was found to have an overall footing thickness of 700mm, a 1000mm drop panel, and a strap beam adjusted to the footing depth. This design passed checks for soil pressure, punching shear, and settlement.
