An isolated footing is one of the most used types of foundation to support single-columns when they are arranged at a long distance. An isolated footing must be designed to avoid exceeding its bearing capacity and provide safety against overturning or sliding while preventing the ground from settling.

A rectangular tank, reaching from floor to ceiling, is relatively expensive to construct as it has to be designed to cope with quite large hydraulic pressures, so there is an advantage in using vertical cylindrical stores, which are placed behind the double glazing as in the Trombe wall system.

To calculate the number of boards needed for purlins, divide the length of the purlin rows by the length of boards you are using (e.g. two boards of length eight feet for each 16 foot long purlin row).

Pile behaves as a transversely loaded beam in case of lateral loads and they transfer lateral load to surrounding soil by means of lateral resistance of the soil. Pile shifts horizontally in response to applied load which results in bending, rotation or translation of pile.

It is also known as the bearing capacity of piles. … Pile load capacity calculation is done for single pile or a group of piles based on the requirement of number of piles for the given load or size of foundation.

A raft foundation, also called a mat foundation, is essentially a continuous slab resting on the soil that extends over the entire footprint of the building, thereby supporting the building and transferring its weight to the ground. … This reduces the stress on the soil.

Mat foundations also are known as raft foundations, is a thick concrete slab placed on the ground as the foundation of the structure. … With the increase of the axial loads on the structure or due to the poor ground conditions, the area of the footings (isolated, combined, strip footing, etc) need to be increased.

A corbel is a very short structural cantilever member projecting from a wall or a column for the purpose of carrying loads. In reinforced concrete structures, corbels are cast monolithically with the walls or columns supporting them.

Strap footings or cantilever footings are a special form of combined footings. They consist of two separate bases that are connected (balanced) by a strap beam. In the design of strap footing, it is assumed that the strap beam is rigid and does not transfer any load by bearing on the soil at its bottom contact

Longitudinally, the footing acts as an upward loaded beam spanning between columns and cantilevering beyond. … Two-way shear is checked under the heavier column. The footing is also subjected to transverse bending and this bending is spread over a transverse strip near the column.

Combined footings are constructed for two or more columns when they are close to each other and their foundations overlap. Design of combined footings with example is discussed. The function of a footing or a foundation is to transmit the load form the structure to the underlying soil.
