Shallow Foundations – Structural Design
One of the most important matters the foundation performance requirements concern is the strength of the foundation. One type of this is the structural strength. In the design of shallow foundations the structural engineer must select appropriate values for concrete compressive strength, and reinforcing steel yield strength. The structural design of a footing must essentially consider flexure, shear, development of reinforcement, and the transfer of load from the column or wall to the footing. This chapter discusses concrete column, wall or pedestal connected to concrete footing, and steel column with base plate connected to concrete footing or pedestal. For large or heavily loaded combined footings such as continuous strip footings or grid foundations, it may be more appropriate to conduct structural design based on a beam on elastic foundation analysis. The chapter also talks about the structural design of mat foundations supported on soils.
