Foundation Design Calculator

Design spread footings with punching shear and bearing capacity checks

ACI 318-19DPT 1008-61Punching / Bearing / Development

Calculation results are decision-support tools. The design engineer must review and verify all results independently.

Unit System

Use factored values (e.g. 1.2D+1.6L) in kN / kN·m; compare with expected column/building load

Axial load (kN)

Moment X (kN·m)

Moment Y (kN·m)

Shear X (kN)

Shear Y (kN)

Bearing capacity: net value (kN/m²) after deducting overburden; 150–300 kN/m² typical for compacted soil

Bearing capacity (kN/m²)

Soil density (kN/m³)

Footing depth (m)
