The document presents the structural design of a pad footing and column. Key parameters such as dimensions, loads, material properties, and design checks are calculated according to code specifications.

A pad footing and column structure is being designed to support a building. The pad footing is 1200mm x 1200mm in plan and 250mm deep.

Dead loads, imposed loads, and soil pressures are considered. The total factored load on the column is 183.2kN and the total factored foundation load is 93.1kN.
