USTP Buba (Cagayan de Oro | Claveria | Jasaan | Oroquieta | Panaon Vilanueva
Problem 5: A rectangular footing is 3meters along the y-axis and 4m along the x-axis.
The footing has a total thickness of 900mm and supports the following loads:
Axial Loads:
D= 1080Kn
L= 480kN
E = 140kN
Moment about y-axis:
D = 240kNm
L = 60kNm
E = 88kNm
The height of the fill above the footing is 1.8m, unit weight of soil is 17kN/m³ and of the
concrete is 23.6kN/m³. Determine the following:
