The bottom of thefooting will be placed at an elevation of ; and since the girderis five feet deep the elevation of the top of the footing is footing must at least be 4 wide on top and 12 long not includ-ing the ends. If the sides are built on a 1:12 batter, the dimen-sions will be 4,150 lbs. The maximum moment in the footings - 1/3 V l2 - 4150 x 9 x 9 x 12 8 : 505,000d is again 56, and since b is 12 8 = 12 x 56 x 36 - If f s is 16,000, then fc . - 300 and p - %% and the area ofthe steel is As = P b d - x 12 x 36r °.
