I am designing a corner footing supporting a three-storey steel building. Steel columns are supported by concrete pedestals. Three pedestals sit on the property line which calls for 'strap footing' as a solution. I have some references that deal with such footing but they don't have one which involves moments (DL, LL, ME).
It will really be helpful if anyone can share with me a manual solution. If it is of private work, please share with me via gotlboys@gmail.com

Thanks a lot for any help.
