Thus, in Figs. 170 or 172, the girders should be about 65 ; extending approximately 8 ft. beyond the left column and15 ft. beyond the right column. The beams in the lower tierof grillage should have a length of about ft. 176. Case II. Projection at One End Limited by Site.—Archi-tectural features frequently fix the length to which the footing. may extend beyond one of the end columns. Sometimes it isnecessary to allow no extension whatever at one end. When-ever either of these two limitations arises, the footing may be soarranged that its pressure per foot of length varies uniformlyfrom one to the other; as shown in Fig. 173. This may beaccomplished by a variation in the lengths of the cross-beams,resulting in a trapezoidal area for the footing. Care should be 278 THEORY OF FRAMED STRUCTURES Chap. VI exercised in the choice and spacing of the cross-beams in orderthat equal deflections at their centers may be assured. Let the intensity of the soil pressure per linear foot, at a dis-tance X from the left end be, Wx = Ax + Bso that the soil pressure at the left end will have the intensity Bper linear foot, and at the right end the intensity Al + B perlinear foot.
