Analysis of isolated footing subjected to axial load


and high biaxial moments and numerical
approach for its solution
Bijay Sarkar

& &

In this paper a rigid isolated foundation of square or


rectangular shape is analyzed on the action of a vertical
load and high biaxial moments at centre. The pressure
intensity corresponding to any given set of above loads on
footings resting on elastic soils has been found through a
general method of analysis and solution is made through
a comprehensive numerical procedure. The common
assumption of linear contact pressure in footing-soil
interface is adopted for the solutions. Special attention has
been given where there are inactive parts of foundation,
without contact with soil and necessary equations on
case to case basis are deduced. Flow Chart for computer
procedure is also provided at end. The solution for these
cases is not yet given in any Indian Standards.

Problem Definition
When the eccentricities are such that the load location
crosses the boundary of the KERN, equation (1) shows
a negative pressure i.e. tensile pressure at some zone
under the footing. As underneath soil can not resist such
tensile forces, the footing area in that zone gets detached
& uplifted from soil and thus the above equations for
base pressure calculation do not remain anymore valid.

4. The values of fractional part x & y have been varied from 0 to 2 (considering x= 0 to 1 for edge AD
& x= 1 to 2 for edge DC and y= 0 to 1 for edge AB
& y= 1 to 2 for edge BC).
5. A check is to be kept on x & y so that calculated
eccentricity always falls on the first quadrant
(+ve) i.e. upper rightmost quadrant of the footing.
6. Different values of x & y may be chosen by
calling a function for the same. For each new iteration, x & y shall be less than the x & y values
of the previous iteration to gradually converge
into the solution.
7. Mark-A and Mark-B of one page of the Flow

Mark of other page to study the Flow Chart.
