Area of Foundation of Lowest Column of Structure Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Area of Foundation = Columns Axial Load/Allowable Bearing Pressure
A = P/F_p
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Area of Foundation - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Foundation is the horizontal surface on which a building or structure rests to distribute its weight evenly.
Columns Axial Load - (Measured in Newton) - Columns Axial Load is defined as the applying a force on a column structure directly along an axis.
Allowable Bearing Pressure - (Measured in Megapascal) - Allowable Bearing Pressure is defined as the maximum soil pressure without any shear failure or settlement failure.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Columns Axial Load: 59.5 Newton --> 59.5 Newton No Conversion Required
Allowable Bearing Pressure: 17 Megapascal --> 17 Megapascal No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A = P/F_p --> 59.5/17

Area of Foundation of Lowest Column of Structure Formula

LaTeX Go

Area of Foundation = Columns Axial Load/Allowable Bearing Pressure
A = P/F_p

What is the significance of Base Plate in Foundation?

The eccentricity of loading or the presence of bending moment at the column base increases the pressure on some parts of the base plate and decreases it on other parts. To compute these effects, the base plate may be assumed completely rigid so that the pressure variation on the concrete is linear.
