design a square individual footing to support a 16 inch square reinforced concrete column. service loads include a dead load of 180 kips and a live load of 140 kips. both column and footing have fc=3000psi and fy=60000 psi. allowable soil bearing preassure is qall=5500 psf. the column is reinforced with eight #8 reinforcing bars.
steps: dtermined the required area of the footing = pservice/qall.
*select a square footing size calculare qu ignoring footing weight
*select a footing thickness based on two way shear and one way shear
*determined the required steel reinforcement for bending and check development lenght
*design for bearing and select dowel size and lenght
*draw a footing detail showing all pertinent design parameters.
