2. A reinforced concrete square footing supports a 450mm square column at its center. Given the following data:
Column service dead load = 910kN
Column service live load = 650kN
Depth of footing = 1.2m
Thickness of the footing = 550m
Effective depth = 450mm
Allowable soil bearing pressure = 281kPa
Concrete strength, fc' = 21MPa
Steel yield strength, fy = 275MPa
Unit weight of concrete, yc = 23.5kN/cu.m
Unit weight of soil, ys = 18.5kN/cu.m
a. What is the required size of footing?
b. What is the factored shear at critical section for wide beam shear?
c. What is the factored shear at critical section for punching shear?
d. What is the factored moment at critical section moment?
e. What is the ultimate punching shear strength?
