Analysis of Rectangular Footing

Nomenclatures:
Bearing pressure Base reaction Foundation bearing area Length of footing Width of footing Distance from N.A. to extreme fiber stress Moment Eccentricity of base reaction Eccentricity of base reaction about x-axis Eccentricity of base reaction about y-axis Moment of Inertia

Bearing pressure due to axial load

Bearing pressure due to ecc. loading

Combined bearing pressure

The combined bearing stress due to axial force and bending moment is: 2 = = 3 = = 3 = 12
