Design of Square Base Shallow Foundation

This document summarizes the design of a square base shallow foundation for a parking garage project. It includes specifications for soil properties, foundation geometry, column loads and moments, and calculations to predimension the foundation width and depth and check for flexural and shear failures. The foundation is designed as a square base with width and length of 75 inches to support a 540 kip axial load from the column. The critical depth is calculated as 13 inches and checks are shown to confirm the foundation resists flexural and two-way shear stresses.
