James K. Wight - Reinforcement & Concrete - Seventh Edition: Example 15-2

Values: L = 11' 2''; B = 11' 2''; c = 18''; d = 18"; DL = 400 kips; LL = 270 kips

Outputs:

  • Factored net Soil Pressure: 7.31 ksf (Book) = 7.31 (Application)
  • New Critical Shear perimeter: 805 ksf (Book) ≈ 804.53 (Application)
  • Critical Section for one way Shear: 308 ksf (Book) ≈ 308.26 (Application)
  • Moment: 954 kip-ft (Book) ≈ 953.97 (Application)
  • Reinforcement: As in both direction = 7.79 in² (Book) ≈ 7.85 in² (Application)
  • Development Length inside footing = 54.8 in (Book) ≉ 32.9 (Application)
      • Author of Book used the following Formula: ld = 54.8 db 𝜳e / 𝝀
      • Application used Equation 12-1 Section 12.2.3 - ACI 318-11 which is more accurate
  • Area of dowels required: 1.76 in² (Book) = 1.76 in² (Application)
  • Development Length in Column: 23 in (Book) ≈ 22.5 in (Application)

James K. Wight - Reinforcement & Concrete - Seventh Edition: Example 15-4

Values: L = 12'; B = 10'; c = 16''; d = 16"; DL = 180 kips; LL = 120 kips

Outputs:

  • Factored net Soil Pressure: 4.2 ksf max & 2.6 ksf max (Book) = 4.2 ksf max & 2.6 ksf max (Application)
  • Critical Shear perimeter: 374 ksf (Book) ≈ 373.68 (Application)
  • Critical Section for one way Shear: 147 ksf (Book) ≈ 138.44 ksf (Application)
      • Author of Book used uniform pressure 4.2 ksf below footing which give the maximum Vu value
      • Application took used the exact pressure under footing which give the proper Shear value
  • Moment: 563 kip-ft (Book) ≈ 563.62 (Application)
  • Reinforcement: As in both direction = 6 in² (Book) ≈ 6.01 in² (L) & 7.82 in² (B) (Application)
  • Development Length inside footing = 48 in (Book) ≉ 26.6 (Application)
      • Author of Book used the following Formula: ld = 54.8 db 𝜳e / 𝝀
      • Application used Equation 12-1 Section 12.2.3 - ACI 318-11
