Example 16.1

`A 16 concrete wall supports a dead load of 14 kips/ft and a live load of 10 kips/ft. The allowable bearing
pressure is = . / at the level of the bottom of the footing which is 4 below grade. Design a
footing for this wall using 4000 psi concrete & G 60 steel.

Solve:
Assume the thickness of footing = 12 16

Weight of Footing(12)= 1*150 = 150 psf

A column 20 square with = reinforced with 10 #8 bars of = supports a dead
