Part-I: OPEN BOOK Problem 1 (30 points). For the isolated square footing shown below, assume that the combined weight of soil and concrete above the base of the footing is equal to 120 pcf. Assume fc-3000 psf and column size of 18in. x 18 in. Determine the followings: a) If the footing size of 10ft. x10ftx 2ft. is adequate based on allowable soil-bearing capacity qa 6,000 psf b) If the footing 10ft. x10ft.x 2ft. is adequate for shear e) Calculate required area of main reinforcing and sketch the design Po -300 kips P-150 kips
