It is required to design and provide reinforcement details for an isolated footing for a column in a building. Following data are available: Data: • Safe bearing capacity of soil = 220 kN/m? at a depth of 1 m below ground level Column cross section: 400 mm x 400 mm Characteristic axial permanent action [Dead Load] on column: 1200 kN. Characteristic axial variable action [Imposed Load] on column: 720 kN Characteristic strength of concrete (fak)=30 N/mm2 Characteristic strength of steel reinforcement (fyk) =500N/mm2 Effective cover to reinforcement on all sides(d') = 50mm. (a) Determine the area and dimensions of the isolated footing required (b) Calculate the effective depth of footing required from punching shear and bending moment considerations. (c) Assess the area and spacing of steel reinforcement required in both directions and compare whether the steel areas provided are within the maximum and minimum steel area requirements. (d) Draw a plan and the longitudinal sectional elevation of the footing showing reinforcement details.

It is required to design and provide reinforcement details for an isolated
footing for a column in a building. Following data are available:
Data:
Safe bearing capacity of soil = 220 kN/m? at a depth of 1 m below
ground level
Column cross section: 400 mm x 400 mm
Characteristic axial permanent action
[Dead Load] on column: 1200 kN.
Characteristic axial variable action
[Imposed Load] on column: 720 kN
Characteristic strength of concrete (fk)=30 N/mm2
• Characteristic strength of steel reinforcement (fyk) =500N/mm2
Effective cover to reinforcement on all sides(d') = 50mm.
(a) Determine the area and dimensions of the isolated footing required
(b) Calculate the effective depth of footing required from punching shear
and bending moment considerations.
(c) Assess the area and spacing of steel reinforcement required in both
directions and compare whether the steel areas provided are within the
maximum and minimum steel area requirements.
(d) Draw a plan and the longitudinal sectional elevation of the footing
showing reinforcement details.
