Question: Check a single column to support an 1 1 i n . reinforced concrete column. The unfactored axial dead load = 1 3 5 kips,

Check a single column to support an 11in. reinforced concrete column. The unfactored axial dead load =135 kips, and the unfactored axial live load =125 kips. The base of the footing is 3ft below grade. The allowable soil bearing pressure is 3000lbft2. Material strengths for the footing are fc=3000 psi and fk=60,000. Footing area is 12ftx12ft. Footing thickness is 30 inches. Footing bottom reinforcement is 13 #8s each way. Check; a) Bearing Capacity, b) Punching Shear, c) one way shear, and d) flexure at face of column.
fc=3000
fy:=60000 psi
f:=0.90
=0.85
r=0.75
D:=135 kip
L:=125 kip
soll:=120pcf
qb:=3000psf
c=150pcf,:=1.0
P=D+L=260kip
Pu=1.2D+1.6L=362kip
There was a typo for P and Pu
Check a single column to support an 1 1 i n .
