**Step 1:** In this section, please specify Pier Footing the code check will be applied to.

**Step 2:** Navigate to Substructure Code Checks > **Pier Footing Code Check**

**Step 3:** Click **three-dots icon** on **Select Pier Footing** and select as **RF1**

(As a different way, the relevant Pier Footing can be selected on the 3D view by clicking "Pick".

**Step 4:** Click **three-dots icon** on **Pier Footing Template**.

Select the **PFCCT1** "Pier Footing Code Check" template defined in the previous steps for all.

**Step 5:** Enter code check station in longitudinal and transverse directions by **Distance in Longitudinal direction from centroid \[ft]** and **Distance in Longitudinal direction from centroid \[ft]** as **3**.

**Step 6:** Quick Tip

How determine "Distance in Longitudinal & Transverse direction from centroid \[ft] parameters?

![](https://openbrim.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/2169929764/image-20230228-105139.png?api=v2)

The point indicated by the red circle is the point where the code is checked for pier footing.

Enter 3 for **"Distance in Longitudinal direction from centroid \[ft]"** and **"Distance in Longitudinal direction from centroid \[ft]"** parameters.

This is because the section edge of the column **(Col\_Sec2)** has **6 ft** (72 in), half of this value is entered.

**Step 7:** Navigate **Flexural Reinforcements** tab.

Set **Reinforcement Material** as **A615\_60.**

**Step 9:** There are 2 types of Flexural Reinforcement in the section, **Bottom** and **Top**.

**Step 10:** Enter Parameters in combobox as follows for both:

**Step 11:** Rebar Profile as **ASTMA615No6**

Spacing of Reinforcements \[in] as **10**

Distance to Extreme Fiber (concrete cover) \[in] as **4**

**Step 12:** Repeat previous step (row 11) for **Transverse Direction Reinforcements**.

**Step 13:** Navigate **Shear Reinforcements** tab.

Set Reinforcement Profile as **ASTMA615No6** for Longitudinal and Transverse direction
