Footing for Wall 1
Imposed load = 264.94 KN (from masonary calculation)
Load per meter run = 264.94/4.73 = 56.0 KN/m
Taking eccentricity, e = 1/24
(for saftey)
Self weight of footing below plinth level,
0.23*0.90*1*20 = 4.14 KN/m
(0.46+0.69+0.92)*0.115*1*20 = 4.76 KN/m
1.15*0.075*1*24 = 2.07 KN/m
Total load = 10.97 KN/m
Total load per meter run (P) = 56.0+10.97 = 66.97 KN/m
Check for stress
- Stress developed on the base,
= P/A + M/Z ; Z = Sectional Modulus = BD2/6
1 = P/B + 6M/B2 = P/B + 6Pe/B2
= 66.97/1.15 + 6*66.97/24*1.152
= 70.90 < 150 KN/m2
Hence safe
2
2 = P/B - 6M/B = P/B - 6Pe/B2
= 66.97/1.15 - 6*66.97/24*1.152
= 45.58 > 0
Hence Safe.

Footing for Wall 5

Imposed load = 380.82 KN (from masonary calculation)
Load per meter run = 380.82/6.23 = 61.13 KN/m
Taking eccentricity, e = 1/6
Self weight of footing below plinth level,
0.23*0.90*1*20 = 4.14 KN/m
(0.46+0.69+0.92)*0.115*1*20 = 4.76 KN/m
1.15*0.075*1*24 = 2.07 KN/m
Total load = 10.97 KN/m
Total load per meter run (P) = 61.13 +10.97 = 72.10 KN/m
Check for stress
- Stress developed on the base,
= P/A + M/Z ; Z = Sectional Modulus = BD2/6
1 = P/B + 6M/B2 = P/B + 6Pe/B2
= 72.10/1.15 + 6*72.10/6*1.152
= 94.48 < 150 KN/m2
Hence safe
2
2 = P/B - 6M/B = P/B - 6Pe/B2
= 72.10/1.15 - 6*72.10/6*1.152
= 7.53 > 0
Hence Safe.
Footing for Wall 7
Imposed load = 359.21 KN (from masonary calculation)
Load per meter run = 359.21/6.23 = 57.66 KN/m
Taking eccentricity, e = 1/6
Self weight of footing below plinth level,
0.23*0.90*1*20 = 4.14 KN/m
(0.46+0.69+0.92)*0.115*1*20 = 4.76 KN/m
1.15*0.075*1*24 = 2.07 KN/m
Total load = 10.97 KN/m
Total load per meter run (P) = 57.66+10.97 = 68.63 KN/m
Check for stress
- Stress developed on the base,
= P/A + M/Z
1 = P/B + 6M/B2 = P/B + 6Pe/B2
= 68.63/1.15 + 6*68.63/6*1.152
= 74.6 < 150 KN/m2
Hence safe
2
2 = P/B - 6M/B = P/B - 6Pe/B2
= 68.63/1.15 - 6*68.63/6*1.152
= 44.76 > 0
Hence Safe.

Footing for Wall 11

Imposed load = 288.16 KN (from masonary calculation)
Load per meter run = 288.16/9.00 = 32.0 KN/m
Taking eccentricity, e = 1/6
Self weight of footing below plinth level,
0.23*0.90*1*20 = 4.14 KN/m
(0.46+0.69+0.92)*0.115*1*20 = 4.76 KN/m
1.15*0.075*1*24 = 2.07 KN/m
Total load = 10.97 KN/m
Total load per meter run (P) = 32.00 +10.97 = 42.97 KN/m
Check for stress
- Stress developed on the base,
= P/A + M/Z
1 = P/B + 6M/B2 = P/B + 6Pe/B2
= 42.97/1.15 + 6*42.97/6*1.152
= 69.87 KN/m2 < 150 KN/m2
Hence safe
2 = P/B - 6M/B2 = P/B - 6Pe/B2
= 42.97/1.15 - 6*42.97/6*1.152
= 4.89 KN/m2 > 0
Hence Safe.
