Foundation Design As Per Eurocode

This document provides an overview of foundation design using Eurocode standards. It discusses footing design, including stability checks for sliding, overturning, uplift, stress ratio, and cracking. It also covers the design of footings for flexure and shear. Key aspects explained include the use of stress diagrams, strain diagrams, and calculations for reinforcement sizing. The document outlines considerations for one-way and two-way shear design as well.

FOOTING DESIGN
 STABILITY OF FOOTING
 Sliding
 Overturning
 Loss of Contact (Uplift)
 Stress Ratio
 Crack Check (As per Code)
 DESIGN OF FOOTING (Strength)
 Flexure (As per Code)
 Bottom Reinforcement

 Applied Shear is increased – Factored Surcharge
 Applied shear = (Shear from base pressure) + (Shear
due to Surcharge)*(av/2d)
 Applied Shear <= VEd,max

 β value:
 (u1/u1*)+(k/W)(u1)(e) (for edge columns)
 (u1/u1*) (for corner columns)
 1+(k/W)(u1)(e) (for inner columns)
 W: Area based on push-pull effect on control perimeter
 u1: Basic Control Perimeter

 u1*: Reduced Basic Control Perimeter
