Spread Footing

Check spread footings for bearing, overturning, sliding, shear, flexure, and minimum reinforcement.

Spread footing design is simple with CalcBook. Evaluate footings with concentric or eccentric pedestals, and quickly update inputs to optimize your design. Simultaneously assess stability under D+L and seismic/wind loading. Design reinforcement and factor in sliding resistance from friction or cohesion, combined with lateral earth pressure.


Design Checks:


  • Minimum reinforcement

  • Flexural capacity

  • One-way shear

  • Two-way shear

  • Bearing pressure

  • Sliding

  • Overturning
