Rectangular Reinforced Concrete Footings

Rectangular footings are used in case of space limitations.

The design of these footings is similar to that of the square footing but each direction must be investigated independently.

The distribution of reinforcement differs in the long and short directions.

In two-way rectangular footing supporting one column, the bending moment in the short direction is taken as equivalent to the bending moment in the long direction.
