Vertical Stress: (Depth to center of mat)*(Soil unit weight)
Beta Theory: if(N>15, 1.5‐.135*sqrt(Depth to center of mat),(N/15)*(1.5‐.135*sqrt(Depth to center of mat
Beta Actual: if(Beta Theory>1.2,1.2,elseif(Beta Theory<.25,.25,Beta Theory)

Skin Friction from Cohesion
Alpha Theory: if(Cohesion/2000<1.5,.55‐.1(Cohesion/2000),.55‐.1((Cohesion/2000))‐1.5)

1.) Foundation Sizing & Stability Check:

Note: This Uplift Check Calculation is in accoradnce with the TIA-222-G-2005 which is reference of NSCP 2015, 7TH
EDITION 2ND PRINTING. The uplift capacity check is computed through working usage ratio of 100% using the ultimate
load combination (ULS).

The other parameters are:

Factor of Safety against Over turning >1.5 (ASD)

Factor of Safety against Sliding >1.5 (ASD)

Settlement Check> 25mm (ASD)

2.) Foundation Design & Punching Shear Check:

One-way Shear Check (USD)


Two-Way Shear Check (USD)
Foundation Reinforcement (USD)
