Wall Footing

The document provides instructions for designing a reinforced concrete wall footing to support a 200mm thick masonry wall carrying a load of 100kN/m. It gives material properties and other parameters as input values. The design is then solved and output values such as the required footing width, steel reinforcement, and other checks are provided. Key output values are a footing width of 0.45m, main steel of #16 bars at 151mm spacing, and an overall footing depth of 450mm.
