Say, are the bar connections between column and isolated spread footing identical to the bar connections between column and combined footings?

Please share your connections or sites or any papers showing exactly how the column bars is connected to the footings. There seems to be many techniques. Let's see them all. Thanks.
 
Now you are testing my patience. The connection of the column to footing depends on what the connection is for. If the column is in compression only, compression splices above the footing are used. If the column is in significant bending, than longer splices are necessary.
