Footing

The document summarizes the design of a footing to support a column with an axial load of 1480 kN. Key calculations include: 1. Determining the footing depth (h) of 600mm and width (d) of 505mm based on soil bearing capacity and shear stress limits. 2. Sizing the footing width (B) at 2500mm and length (D) at 3160mm based on service load calculations. 3. Checking reinforcement requirements in the long and short directions of the footing and ensuring code compliance for moment capacity, crack control, and shear strength.
