area of footing required = 3.718 m2 =
Required length and breath 1.93 * 1.93 footing
provided footing size = 2.1 * 2.1
thus provided area = 4.41 m2
The net earth pressure acting upward due to factored load is
Pu= 115 kN/m2
0.12 N/sq.mm
where 1.5 is partial safety factor
Shear in one way action
the critical section is taken as distance d away from the face of column
l 0.85
Now effective depth required is MM 255.00
D depth MM 450 Depth is increased to provide sloped footing
d effective depth MM 382 (L)
Check for sloped part
Provide full depth of the footing slab upto distance of 500mm from the face of column and edge thickness of 300
Check for Bending Moment
Bending moment about an axis x-x passing through the face of column

Now effective depth required is

Shear in two way action
The critical section is taken at a d/2 distance away from the face of the column
A2= 0.349
Now shear force Vu=

Nominal shear stress(τv) =
0.5171183 N/mm2
shear strength of M 20 concrete
τ'c = ks *τc

ks= 0.5+ βc
βc = longer side of column/shorter side of column
ks= 0.5+1 ks≤1
= 1.5
thus Ks = 1

thus τ'c =τc = 0 . 25 fck

since nominal shear strength is less than shear shrenght of concrete the design is safe in

Load transfer from column to footing

Nominal bearing stress in column = 1.5*338*1000/(400*400)
= 3.16875 N/mm2

Allowable bearing stress = 0.45*√fck

= 9 N/mm2
now Excess load = -933000 N

Area of steel required As = -2785.07 mm2
