FOUNDATION FOOTINGS
FOUNDATION FOOTINGS
The purpose of the foundation footing is to receive the load from the walls and distribute
it over the ground. The size of the footing depends on the weight of the building, how
much weight the soil can support, and the type of material used.
For a load bearing wall footing, it is not
usually necessary to place the footing deep.
If the soil is the same type and is hard in all
places it is possible to dig the footing trench
as little as 20 cm deep. Of course, for soft
wet soil with no drainage, piles (pillars
pounded into the ground) will probably be
necessary.
Concrete Reinforced with Steel Footing
A reinforced concrete footing is good
especially in places with earthquakes.
Make sure that the steel rod used is free of
rust and is well covered with concrete: no
pieces should be near the surface or
sticking out (except the vertical rebar, which
will receive blocks).
