Pier Footing Code Check T

This section configures the code check template for pier footing design verification.

Navigation: Templates for Code Check > Pier Footing Code Check T

Steps

Step 1: Navigate to Pier Footing Code Check T

Navigate to Templates for Code Check > Pier Footing Code Check T in the tree view.

Step 2: Configure Flexure Checks

Set parameters for footing flexural verification:

• Bottom reinforcement for positive moment

• Top reinforcement for pile uplift (if applicable)

Step 3: Configure Shear Checks

Set parameters for footing shear capacity:

• One-way shear (beam shear)

• Two-way shear (punching shear)

• Critical section locations

Step 4: Configure Bearing Pressure Checks

Set allowable bearing pressure limits based on geotechnical recommendations.

Quick Tip: Critical Section for Shear

For one-way shear, the critical section is at distance 'd' from the column face. For two-way shear, the critical perimeter is at 'd/2' from the column.

Verification

After completing these steps, the pier footing code check template is ready for design verification.
