A 4.5m x 4.5m footing carries a uniformly distributed load of 3000 kN. Using both the influence coefficient and approximate methods, determine the increase in vertical stress (Aov) due to that loading on points located at 4.5 m below the corner and center of the footing. Solution A 4.5m x 4.5m footing carries a uniformly distributed load of 3000 kN. Using both the influence coefficient and approximate methods, determine the increase in vertical stress (Aov) due to that loading on points located at 4.5 m below the corner and center of the footing. Solution
