Design a strapped footing for columns with following details. Column A is 350mmX350mm and column B is 500mmX350mm in size.

Columns carry loads of 750kN and 1050kN respectively. Centre to centre distance between columns is 4m. Centre of column A is at .2m from plot boundary. Safe bearing capacity of soil is 220kN/mm2

Solution 1. Size of footing W1= 750kN W2=1050kN B(L1+L2)= or (L1+L2)= m Let x be the distance of C.G. of loads from A. X= = = 1.7m = 9m2

If X also be the C.G. of area from centre of column A X= 1.7 = 5.1 = 4.175L1 - 0.5L12 L1=1.48m L2=1.52m Net upward pressure p0 = = 200kN/m2

2. Design of footing slab Let the width of strap beam be 0.35m (350mm) Cantilever projection beyond the beam is a= Max. BM M= =169kN.m =1.3m

d= = = 303.06 say 310mm assuming effective cover as 40mm D=370mm therefore d=260mm Ast= [ ] = 1705.35mm2

Provide 20mm dia. bars at 180mm c/c. Ldreq=54.03X20=1080.6mm Ld available= 1.325-60=1.24m > Ldreq ......... ok Distribution reinforcement Astmin= 0.12% of c/s area= = 372mm2 Provide 10mm dia. bars at 210mm c/c

3. Bending moment and shear force diagrams for strap beam wd= 900kN/m W1d= 3214.3kN/m W2d= 3150kN/m S.F. at B=459kN

S.F. at C= 666kN S.F. at D= 207kN S.F. at E= 207kN S.F at F= 810kN SF at I(F1)= 279kN ..........Point of contra flexure

BM at B= +117kN.m BM at H= +163kN.m BM at D= -157.3kN.m BM at E= -482.45kN.m BM at G= -506.25kN.m ........point of zero shear(1250mm from J) ......point of zero shear(714mm from A)

3. Dimensions of strap beam and design of reinforcement Let the width of strap beam be 400mm. a) Design of reinforcement for hogging. The effective depth will be found out for maximum bending moment. d= =

=661.06mm let 680mm

Provide 50mm effective cover D=730mm [Note: Moment for finding out depth of beam is considered as 482.45kN.n instead of Mmax= 506.25kN.m, since we can get more moment of resistance for T beam]

= 3400mm > 3000mm therefore take bf as 3000mm Assuming Df= Xu Mu= Mu > Md Therefore Xu< Df Ast= [ ] = = 4192.6kN.m

= 2108.24mm2 Provide 7 bars of 20mm dia. b) Design of reinforcement for sagging Xu=0.48d=326.4mm Mu= = 510.35kN.m > Md

Therefore singly reinforced section is sufficient. Ast= [ [ ] ]

Provide 4 nos. of 16mm dia. bars Reinforcement required at point of contra flexure. Ld = 54.04=864.64mm

L0= 12 or d (whichever is greater) =680mm Ld= 864.6= M= 51.58kN.m therefore Ast required at point of contra flexure= 213.34mm2 Curtail 2 no. of 16mm dia. bar at 190mm from outer face of column B.

Curtailment of hogging reinforcement Assume 4 bars of 20mm dia. are curtailed. Therefore Mr= =.87X415X942.48[680-137.08) = 184.74kN.m

Assuming above moment is acting in the span of strap beam at distance 'x' from inner face of footing A. -184.74= [900(x+.74)X1.48]-[(3214.3X0.35)X(x+1.13)] x=2.05m Check for development length required SF at point of curtailment=207kN Ld = 54.04=864.64mm Ld= 864.6= L0=.96mm Curtail 4, 20mm dia. bars at 1.78m from outer face of footing B
