design for british code 8110
1.A 500 mm square column carries a dead load of 1200 kN and imposed load of 400 kN. The safe bearing capacity of the soil is 180 kN/m2. Design a square pad footing to resist the loads using the following material strengths: fcu=30 N/mm2, fy=500 N/mm2.
2.Design a pad footing for a rectangular column of section 300x500 mm supporting an axial factored load of 1,400 kN. The safe bearing capacity of the soil is 180 kN/m2. Use fcu= 20N/mm2, fy= 415 N/mm2.
