Footing Stresses
Footing Stresses
(OP)
Hello all,
Please, how can we determine the bearing stress of a footing in etabs and comparing it with allowable bearing pressure. Does anyone has this experience in ETABS?

RE: Footing Stresses
If there is no overturning moment on the footing then the pressure would just be P/A. If there is overturning moment causing an eccentricity less than b/6 then you can make it work with an equivalent bearing pressure.
