Footing Design: How to Check the Shear
Capacity per ACI 318
The first step is to calculate the bearing pressures under Archive Blog
the action of the factored loads. The one-way shear is then
the volume of the bearing pressure under the colored Selector
strip in the figure above. If the pressures are uniform this
calculation is quite simple. Consider now the case of a Select Month
biaxial footing in partial bearing. In this case the shape of
the volume of the resulting pressures is irregular and
much harder to calculate.

ASDIP FOUNDATION uses an algorithm based on triple
integrals of the type V = ∫∫∫dV to find the volume of these
solids, and therefore the shear forces in the footing. The Anchor Rods

What are the factors affecting the punching Steel Design
shear?

In this expression γv is the fraction of the moment being
transferred by shear and J is the polar moment of inertia
of the critical section. A third term may be added for the SUBSCRIBE
moment in the other direction. Since both Vu and Mu are
involved, it’s better to compare the punching shear to the
shear strength in terms of stress, rather than force or
moment.
Takeaway
Footing design includes two shear checks per ACI
318: One-way shear, and Punching shear. The shear
strength is usually provided by concrete alone in
order to avoid expensive shear reinforcement,
therefore shear could control the footing thickness.
