A wall footing supports a 320 mm thick reinforced concrete wall with a dead load 297.17 kN/m and a live load 210.6 kN/m. The weight of the footing and soil is assumed to be 18.79% of the dead load. The soil bearing capacity of the soil is 173 kPa. Concrete strength f'c = 27.3 MPa and fy = 276 MPa. Use the thickness of footing %3D %3D 489 mm and the centroid of the main bars is 80 mm from the bottom of the footing. Solve the required area of tension reinforcement per meter length (mm2/m) of the wall footing.
