ISOFOOTCALC

This document contains calculations for an isolated foundation design. It provides input parameters such as loads, foundation dimensions, material strengths, and soil properties. It then calculates ultimate loads and approximate base dimensions. Effective depth, foundation weight, contact pressure, overturning and sliding stability are checked. Shear capacities and reinforcement ratios are also checked. The calculations are shown over two pages with input at the top and checking of requirements at the bottom.
