Example Isolated Footing

The document provides a worked example for designing a square isolated footing. It includes calculating the footing size, checking punching shear and wide beam shear capacities, determining reinforcement ratios, and detailing the reinforcement with bar sizes and spacing. The footing is designed to support a 600 kN dead load and 250 kN live load on a 0.4m x 0.3m column with an allowable bearing capacity of 175 kPa. The final footing size is 2.21m x 2.21m with φ14 reinforcement bars spaced at 140, 130, and 150 mm.

SOLUTION

• Proportioning:
σall = P/A * (1 + 6*eB/B + 6*eL/L)
eB (service) = 0/850 = 0 m
eL (service) = 0/850 = 0 m
175 = (600 + 250) / (1 * B^2) * (1 + 6*0/B + 6*0/1 * B)
175B^3 - 850B - 0 = 0
B = 2.21 m
L = 2.21 m

• Depth Determination:
eB (ultimate) = 0 m
eL (ultimate) = 0 m
σ = P/A = (1.3*600+1.6*250)/(2.21 * 2.21) = 241.6 kPa

A. Punching Shear
Take d = 0.4
VRd = 0.25 * fctd * k1 * k2 * u * d
fctd = 0.21 * (fck)^(2/3) / γc = 0.21 * (0.8 * 25^(2/3) / 1.5 = 1.032 MPa = 1032 kPa
K1 = 1 + 50ρe (≤ 2) = 1 + 50 * (0.5 / 300) = 1.083 (i.e. taking ρe = ρmin)
K2 = 1 - d (≥ 1) = 1 - 0.4 = 1.2
U = 2 * (b + 3 * d) + 2 * (l + 3 * d) = 2 * (0.3 + 3 * 0.4) + 2 * (0.4 + 3 * 0.4) = 6.2 m
VRd = 0.25 * 1032 * 1.083 * 1.2 * 6.2 * 0.4
= 831.412 kN
Pnet = P - A'σ
σ = P/A = 1180 / (2.21 * 2.21) = 241.6 kPa
Pnet = 1180 - ((0.3 + 3 * 0.4) * (0.4 + 3 * 0.4)) * 241.6
= 600.159 kN ≤ VRd ................. OK

B. Wide Beam Shear (Along B)


VRd = 0.25 * fctd * k1 * k2 * b * d
VRd = 0.25 * 1032 * 1.083 * 1.2 * 2.21 * 0.4
= 296.358 kN
Vsd = ((L - h)/2 - ) * B * σ
Vsd = ((2.21 - 0.4)/2 - 0.4) * 2.21 * 241.6
= 269.638 kN ≤ VRd ................. OK

C. Wide Beam Shear (Along L)


VRd = 0.25 * fctd * k1 * k2 * b * d
VRd = 0.25 * 1032 * 1.083 * 1.2 * 2.21 * 0.4
= 296.358 kN
Vsd = ((B - b)/2 - d) * L * σ
Vsd = ((2.21 - 0.3)/2 - 0.4) * 2.21 * 241.6

• Reinforcement Determination:
As = ρ * b * d

A. Reinforcement Along B
ρ = (1 - √(1 - 2 * M / (fcd * L * d ^ 2))) * (fcd / fyd)
fcd = 0.8 * 0.85 * 25 / 1.5 = 11.333 MPa
fyd = 300 / 1.15 = 260.87 MPa
M = 241.6 * 2.21 * ((2.21 - 0.3) / 2) ^ 2 / 2 = 243.482 kNm
ρ = (1 - √(1 - 2 * 243.482/ (11333 * 2.21 * 0.4 ^ 2))) * (11.333 / 260.87) = 0.002725
As = 0.002725 * 2210 * 400 = 24.1 mm2
For φ 14:
S = (π * (14^2 / 4) * 2210 / 24.089 = 141.23 mm
Use φ 14 C / C 140

B. Reinforcement Along L
ρ = (1 - √(1 - 2 * M / (fcd * B * d ^ 2))) * (fcd / fyd)
M = 344.008 * 2.2 * ((2.2 - 0.4) / 2) ^ 2 / 2 = 306.511 kNm
ρ = (1 - √(1 - 2 * 306.511/ (13600 * 2.2 * 0.47 ^ 2))) * (13.6 / 260.87) = 0.002477
As = 0.002477 * 2200 * 470 = 25.6 cm2
For φ 14:
S = (π * (14^2 / 4) * 2200 / 25.607 = 132.25 mm
Use φ 14 C / C 130

ρ = (1 - √(1 - 2 * M / (fcd * B * d ^ 2))) * (fcd / fyd)


M = 241.6 * 2.21 * ((2.21 - 0.4) / 2) ^ 2 / 2 = 218.654 kNm
ρ = (1 - √(1 - 2 * 218.654/ (11333 * 2.21 * 0.4 ^ 2))) * (11.333 / 260.87) = 0.002439
As = 0.002439 * 2210 * 400 = 21.6 mm2
For φ 14:
S = (π * (14^2 / 4) * 2210 / 21.559 = 157.8 mm
Use φ 14 C / C 150
