Hi,
I'm modelling the 2 cores of a 7 story building using RISA 3D. The cores are on 30" thick mat foundations connected to 3 adjacent footings. One footing is part of the mat, and the other 2 are connected to the mat by strap beams. When I run the model and plot the moment contours, the moments are given in k*ft. This may be a stupid question, but are these moment outputs about each axis in units of k*ft/ft? I have a moment value of 44.1 k*ft for one of the color contours. Is this the total moment in that area or is that the moment per ft of foundation/slab? I can't find it in the manual. It just says that the moment is output in k*ft.
Thanks
