ASDIP FOUNDATION can calculate the soil pressures under the footing with any service load combination including uplift loading. The footing is assumed to be perfectly rigid with constant thickness and rotates about its mass center to maintain equilibrium of forces. Columns may be eccentric in two directions.
The software performs concrete footings design based upon Ultimate Strength Design Method within ACI 318. This structural engineering software analyzes the footing stability for overturning, sliding, and uplift. ASDIP FOUNDATION design software computes soil bearing pressures induced by a square or rectangular spread concrete footing subject to vertical load and biaxial moment.
A spread footing is an element that spreads the loads in such a way that the soil bearing pressures are under the allowable limits.
