An isolated footing of size l'2 m x 1'6 m is reinforced by 12 mm diameter bar @ 100 mm c/c along shorter direction and 1O m:n dia,meter bar @ 150 mm c/c along the longer direction of the footing. The footing is designed to support a rectangular column of size 250 mm x 350 mrn with 8 nos. of 16 mm diameter longitudinal reinforcement and 8 mm diameter @ 120 mrn c/c transverse reinforcement. The overall depth of the footing is provided as 4O0 mm. Draw the design details for plan as well as sectiona-l views. 10 10. An RCC beam is subjected to a u.d.i. of 12 kN/m over a clear span of 2 5 m and is simply supported between two walls of 3OO mrn thick each. The size of the beam is 225 mm wide and 40O mm overall depth. Using M-2O grades of concrete alld Fe-415 grades of steel, design the bea:rr for steel reinforcement. 8 11. A bracket connection is shown in the Fig. 3 with 4 nos. of 2O mm diameter rivet. For Fe-415 grade of steel, determine the safe load that can be transferred through the connection.
