Footing is called eccentrical footing due to eccentricity between the center of gravity and position of loading. But, what is eccentricity? We know the center of gravity of any solid square or rectangular footing is the cutting point of the center line from both sides.

In this post, we will walk through the essential steps in designing eccentric spread footings, focusing on bearing pressure demands, critical section bending, shear forces, and the evaluation of sliding, overturning, flexural and shear capacities.

Reinforced concrete foundations, or footings, transmit loads from a structure to the supporting soil. Footings are designed based on the nature of the loading, the properties of the footing and the properties of the soil. Determine the requirements for the footing, including the loading and the nature of the supported structure.

2024年11月19日 · Footings that are not concentrically loaded are known as “Eccentric Footings”. In addition, when footings are subjected to an axial load “P” and bending moment “M” or lateral force “H”, the footing will experience unbalanced stress distributions along the base of the footing.

The design of eccentrically loaded foundations is not the same as the conventional foundation where the column load is applied at the center of the footing. Normal footing becomes eccentrically load footing when there is an eccentricity in the loading or when there is a bending moment at the connection of footing and the column.

2022年10月27日 · This article will consider the geotechnical and structural design of a biaxial eccentrically loaded pad footing. The footing for a single column may be made square in plan, but where there is a large moment acting about only one axis it may be more economical to have a rectangular base.

CE 402: Foundation Engineering Design Design of Eccentric Footing • Example(1): Make a complete design for a footing supporting a 30cm X 60cm column load of 120t at ground surface (G.S.), 20m.t moment and 10t horizontal force at G.S. The foundation level is 2.00 m below G.S. and the net allowable bearing capacity is 0.80kg/cm2.
