Overview Once again RISA Technologies, LLC abandons
approximate methods for a better solution. RISAFoot provides
the only exact solution for spread footings in biaxial loading
with uplift. Optimize your spread footings and handle
eccentric pedestals and bounding property lines with RISAFoot.
|
|
|
 |
Loads
You can apply vertical loads, shears, and moments, in both
directions simultaneously. Self weight and overburden are
calculated automatically. |
| |
Soil
RISAFoot will calculate EXACT biaxial soil bearing distributions
using advanced computational methods. Don't settle for
approximate biaxial solutions, or even worse, design for biaxial
loading by combining two separate uniaxial analyses. |
|
| |
|
|
Footing
RISAFoot determines the optimum footing length, width and
thickness to satisfy soil bearing, bending, shear, uplift, and
boundary criteria.
Top and bottom reinforcement is specified
in both directions. Details may be exported to DXF files. |
| |
|
Pedestal
RISAFoot gives a full pedestal design for axial loads, biaxial
bending and shear. Longitudinal bars, development and ties are
specified and supporting design information is reported. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Overturning & Sliding
RISAFoot separates load contributions for overturning and
stabilizing forces, satisfies the desired factor of safety and reports the overturning
and stabilizing moments. Sliding checks verify that the applied forces can be resisted
by the calculated soil friction force and user defined passive soil resistance. |
