Footing self weight to resist uplift
Footing self weight to resist uplift
(OP)
When checking against the uplift reaction from a column, can I use a portion of the adjacent strip footing and foundation wall (integrated with column pilaster and spread footing) to help resist the uplift forces? If so, is there a rule of thumb of what length of the foundation wall to use?

In this case, should I ignore the CMU portion and only count the strip footing?
