67.9 kips (302.02 kN); V 2 = V 2 I(Ld) = 67,900/[92(19.S)] = 38 lb/in

(262.0 kPa) < 60
lb/in^2 (413.7 kPa). This is acceptable.



  1. Design the reinforcement
    In Fig. 24, EA = 3.00 ft (0.914 m); VEF= 380(3.00/7.67) = 148.6 kips (666.97 kN); MEF =
    148.6(^1 / 2 )(3.00)(12) = 2675 in-kips (302.22 kN-m); A 5 = 2675/[20(0.874)(19.5)] = 7.85 in^2
    (50.648 cm^2 ). Try 10 no. 8 bars each way. Then A 3 = 7.90 in^2 (50.971 cm^2 ); ^o = 31.4 in
    (797.56 mm); u = VEFTZojd = 148,600/[31.4(0.874)(19.5)] = 278 lb/in^2 (1916.81 kPa);
    "allow = 264/1 = 264 lb/in^2 (1820.3 kPa).
    The bond stress at EF is slightly excessive. However, the ACI Code, in sections based
    on ultimate-strength considerations, permits disregarding the local bond stress if the aver-
    age bond stress across the length of embedment is less than 80 percent of the allowable
    stress. Let Le denote this length. Then Le = EA - 3 = 33 in (838.2 mm); 0.80wallow = 211
    lb/in^2 (1454.8 kPa); uav = Asfsl(L£o) = 0.79(20,000)/[33(3.1)] = 154 lb/in^2 (1061.8 kPa).
    This is acceptable.

  2. Design the dowels to comply with the Code
    The function of the dowels is to transfer the compressive force in the column reinforcing
    bars to the footing. Since this is a tied column, assume the stress in the bars is
    0.85(20,000) = 17,000 lb/in^2 (117,215.0 kPa). Try eight no. 9 dowels withfy = 40,000
    lb/in^2 (275,800.0 kPa). Then u = 2647(9/8) -
    235 lb/in^2 (1620.3 kPa); Le = 1.00(17,00O)/
    [235(3.5)] = 20.7 in (525.78 mm). Since the
    footing can provide a 21-in (533.4-mm) em-
    bedment length, the dowel selection is satis-
    factory. Also, the length of lap = 20(9/8) =
    22.5 in (571.5 mm); length of dowels = 20.7



  • 22.5 = 43.2, say 44 in (1117.6 mm). The
    footing is shown in Fig. 25.


COMBINED FOOTING DESIGN


An 18-in (457.2-mm) square exterior column
and a 20-in (508.0-mm) square interior col-
umn carry loads of 250 kips (1112 kN) and
370 kips (1645.8 kN), respectively. The col-
umn centers are 16 ft (4.9 m) apart, and the
footing cannot project beyond the face of the
exterior column. Design a combined rectan-
gular footing by the working-stress method,
using fi = 3000 lb/in^2 (20,685.0 kPa), /, =
20,000 lb/in^2 (137,900.0 kPa), and an allow- *I^UKE zs
able soil pressure of 5000 lb/in^2 (239.4 kPa).


Calculation Procedure:


  1. Establish the length of footing, applying the criterion
    of uniform soil pressure under total live and dead loads
    In many instances, the exterior column of a building cannot be individually supported be-
