Foundation Design in Concrete Structure: Ultimate Strength Design - Metric Edition

By Antonio Templado

The main focus in foundation design is the determination of the depth of the footing due to the applied loads transferred by the column. This book covers all the details of designing four different footings: 1. Combined footing 2. Continuous footing 3 Square Footing, and 4. Rectangular Footing. It Includes all structural analysis, calculations, and drawings to support the theory of the design. The final column load obtained from my first book "Civil Engineering in Reinforced Concrete Design" is being used in this book for the complete design of the four above-mentioned footings. You have the option to have this first book or go ahead and proceed with the design without it. Remember that the calculations of the final column load(s) are the most important in the design of the foundation. My first book primarily focused on how all building loads are calculated to obtain the final column load that transfers the load to the footing supporting the column. The catalyst in Foundation Design is the determination of the thickness or depth of the footing which is explained in this book through the process and structural analysis. All reinforcement bar sizes are determined through this book as well as the development length "Ld", distances between bars, and their correct placements in the footing. Two important Analyses are used to make sure that the footings are safe, through Punching and Beam shear analysis.
