Book excerpt: Complete, shovel-ready construction plans and design information for single story footings and foundations of any size, using any materials Single story buildings often have shallow foundations, called “footings,” that transfer weight to the ground. Engineers must design these footings, along with a reinforced concrete foundation. This is an arduous process, requiring a great deal of time and many complex calculations. Footings Manual: Pre-designed Foundations and Anchorage for Single Story Buildings simplifies this process and helps save you time and money while increasing efficiency and quality. This practical guide offers pre-calculated design tables and ready-to-build construction plans—all requiring minimal to no math. Materials specs are included to assist you in accurate budgeting and estimating. All plans include data for multiple concrete strengths and varying loads—not just gravity—and are applicable to single story structures of any size. You’ll also get soil data, welding information, and design aides for reinforcing bars. Features pre-calculated tables, diagrams, and ready-to-build plans All data is based on the latest 2015 International Building Code Designs include options for multiple strengths of concrete, and for all types of loads
