Self-study 6: Design of Isolated Column Footing Area of footing
From the range of bearing pressure given, and allowable for the self-weight of the footing, the available bearing pressure is, say, 400kPa. A column 500mm by 400mm with ten Y24 bars carries a service dead load of 3000kN and service live load of Total service load= 3000 + 1400 = 4400kN, 1400kN. A square footing is required for the column. The allowable bearing pressure for the foundation is Hence the required area= 4000⁄400 = 11.0m2 ; choose a footing 3.4m square. estimated to be 400 to 450 kPa. The concrete strength is fc′ = 30MPa. Thickness of footing For the ultimate strength design of the footing we consider the factored column load, P ∗ , and the corresponding upward pressure, q u P ∗ = 1.20 × 3000 + 1.5 × 1400 = 5700kN’ q u = 5700⁄3.4^2 = 493kPa = 493 × 10−3 MPa To determine the required effective depth, we consider the beam shear on a critical section at distance d from the 500mm face of the column (Figure 1(b)). V ∗ = 493 × 10−3 × 3400(1450 − d) = 1720(1450 − d)N The shear strength of the section depends on the amount of the tensile steel used for bending. We assume a minimum quantity of: As per Clause 16.3.1 pmin = 0.19 (D/d)2 f’ct,f / fsy , but since depth is unknown use following expression instead pminn = 1.4⁄fsy = 1.4⁄400 = 0.0035 (conservative) Having Vuc from the following equation: 1 𝐴 𝑠𝑡 ′ 3 𝑉𝑢𝑐 = 𝛽1 𝐵𝑑 ( 𝐵𝑑 𝑓𝑐 ) (Clause 8.2.7.1) 1⁄ Vuc = 1.1 × 3400 × d(0.0035 × 30) 3 = 1764d N Equating V ∗ to ϕVuc′ we get d = 873mm. With a cover of 75mm and 20 mm diameter reinforcing bars: D = 873 + 10 + 75 = 958mm; Hence we take D = 960mm, d = 875mm, and dom = 865mm. Check actual pmin = 0.19 x (960/875)2 x 3.29 / 400 = 0.0019 << 0.0035 considered OK We must now check for punching shear. The shear perimeter (Figure 1 (a)) is a rectangular (400 + dom ) × Figure 1. Details of Tut.20 (500 + dom ) i.e. 1265 × 1365mm. The shear acting is: (Clause 9.2.3) V ∗ = 493 × 10−3 (34002 − 1265 × 1365) = 4848 kN Having equation: 2 𝑓𝑐𝑣 = 0.17 (1 + 𝛽 ) √𝑓𝑐′ < 0.34√𝑓𝑐′ ℎ
fcv = 0.34√30 = 1.86MPa

u = 2(1265 + 1365) = 5260mm
Also: 𝑉𝑢𝑜 = 𝑢𝑑𝑜𝑚 𝑓𝑐𝑣 ϕVuo = 0.7 × 5260 × 965 × 1.86 = 5924 kN; Which is greater than V ∗ and so the design of is satisfactory for punching shear. Tensile reinforcement for bending The critical section for bending is at the longer face (500mm face) of the column, where the length of the cantilevered portion is 0.5(3400 − 400) = 1500mm. The design ultimate moment is hence: M ∗ = 0.493 × 3400 × 15002 ⁄2 = 1885 × 106 Nmm = 1885kNm An estimate of the steel area required is now made: Ast = 1885 × 106 ⁄(0.8 × 0.9 × 875 × 400) = 7481mm2 However, the minimum steel requirement is: Astmin = 0.0035 × 3400 × 875 = 10.412mm2 which governs. Use 34Y20 bars. (It is possible to use the Amin given in Cl 16.3.1 at this stage, however in this case the shear capacities will need to be re-checked using the reduced reinforcement area as they were calculated using a p of 0.0035) Tensile reinforcement in transverse direction: In the other direction, the effective depth is marginally less, by the diameter of a reinforcing bar. However, the moment is also slightly less because of the smaller column size and the minimum steel area applies. We again use 34 Y20 bars.
