Example (11.4):
Design an appropriate footing/footings to support two columns A and B spaced at distance 2.1 m
center-to-center, as shown in Figure 11.13.a is 20 cm 30 cm and carries a dead load of 20 tons
and a live load of 10 tons. Column B is 20 cm 40 cm in cross section but carries a dead load of
30 tons and a live load of 15 tons. Width of footing is not to exceed 1.0 m, and there is no
property line restriction.

Solution:
1- Select a trial footing depth:
Assume that the footing is 50 cm thick.
2- Establish the required base area of the footing:
q all (net ) = 20 1.5 (1.7 ) 0.5 (2.5) = 16.2 t / m 2
20 + 10 + 30 + 15
Areq = = 4.63 m 2

To locate the resultant of the column forces, replace the column load system with a resultant force
system, or

4- Check footing thickness for punching shear:
Column B:
Effective depth d = 50 7.5 0.80 = 41.7 cm (lower layer)
The factored shear force
Vu = 60 (21.51)(0.817 )(0.617 ) = 49.16 tons

Example (11.5):
Design a combined footing, to support two columns A and B spaced at distance 6.0 m center-to-
center as shown in Figure 11.14.a. Column A is 40 cm 40 cm and carries a dead load of 50 tons
and a live load of 30 tons. Column B is also 40 cm 40 cm in cross section but carries a dead
load of 70 tons and a live load of 50 tons.
Use f c = 250 kg / cm 2 , f y = 4200 kg / cm 2 , and q all (net ) = 1 .50 kg / cm 2 .
Solution:
1- Select a trial footing depth:
Let footing thickness h = 80 cm
2- Establish the required base area of the footing:
