    The document discusses the design of isolated footings, including eccentrically loaded pad bases where the base pressure varies linearly across the base. It notes that horizontal loads are resisted by passive earth pressure, friction, or adhesion depending on the soil type. A worked example is then provided to calculate the maximum base pressure, horizontal load resistance, moment reinforcement, vertical shear, and punching shear for a column footing with given load and soil properties. Design checks are performed to verify the reduced shear and moment demands do not exceed the soil resistances.

    Design of Shallow Foundations: ISOLATED FOOTINGS
    Isolated Footing Design
    Eccentrically Loaded Pad Bases
    • Base pressure is assumed rigid as compared with the soil.

    •Therefore, varies linearly across base.


    Isolated Footing Design
    Isolated Footing Design
    • Resistance to horizontal loads

    • Resisted by passive earth pressure, friction between the base and

    ground for cohesionless soils, or adhesion for cohesive soils.
