Foundations
Foundations are usually divided into:
:
1) Shallow Foundations are used when the top layers of
soil can support the applied loads with accepted
settlement. They can take any form of the followings:
:) 1
:
- Spread (isolated) Footing,
- Combined Footing,
- Strap Beam Footing
- Wall Footing,
- Strip Footing,
- Raft Foundation.

Foundations
2) Deep Foundations are used if the top soil is
weak and can not support the structure loads.
They used to transmit the loads to the stronger
deeper soil layers. Forms of deep foundations are
piles, pillars, caissons, and Alexandria Wells
.etc.

Foundation Safety
Foundations should be safe against:
1- Shear failure in soil.
2- Excessive total or differential settlements.
3- Depression settlement due to excessive
dewatering.
4- Uplift during construction due to high
G.W.T.
5- Sliding or overturning due to large
horizontal loads.

Design an isolated footing to support a
column load of 122 ton, knowing that the
soil allowable bearing capacity, qall = 1.25

column dimensions are 80 * 25 cm.

Example
Design an isolated footing to support a column
load of 122.0 ton (unfactored 78.0 ton dead,
and 44.0 ton live loads), the soil allowable
bearing capacity, qall = 1.25 kg/m2, (12.50 t/m2
= 125.0 kN/m2) and the column dimensions are
80 * 25 cm. Design using the ultimate strength
method, knowing that:
fcu = 30 N/mm2 = 300 kg/cm2 (for R.C.).
fcu = 20 N/mm2 = 200 kg/cm2 (for P.C.).
fy = 360 N/mm2 (for steel reinforcement).
