Residential spread footings rebar
Residential spread footings rebar
(OP)
I have to add 2 spread footings to the center of my house, one to hold 9,000 lbs and the other 23,000 lbs. I have a spread footings design using a rebar size I can't get, so I am looking for advice on how to do the footings using 1/2" diameter rebar.
The soil capacity is 3000 psf. The footing for 9000 lbs will be 2'x 2' and the footing for 23,000 lbs will be 3' x 3'. Both would be 1' thick. What would you recommend for spacing for 1/2" rebar?
Thanks

What was the rebar size and spacing in the design that you have? With that information, it would be relatively easy to come up with an equivilant design.
