2- Design a suitable foundation to carry two columns C1,C2 spaced at 6.0m and
shown in Fig. (1) for the following data: C1:40x40cm,LL=500kN&DL=
700kN, lies near a property line. C2:6060cm,LL=900kN&DL=1200
kN. The safe bearing pressure of soil is 150kNm2 and the characteristic material
strengths are fc=24MPa and fy=420MPa. The level of the top of footings is
1.0m below the ground surface. Draw a neat sketch showing reinforcement
details.
