Mat Footing Reinforcement Details

The bearing capacity increased by combining all individual footings in to one mat since bearing capacity is proportional to width and depth of foundations.

Mat footing reinforcement details.

Zones created by the program are based on real time stresses subjected on mat. It is a continuous thick concrete slab on the soil that extends the entire footprint of the building and increases the soil bearing capacity power. Reinforcement detail for each zone is displayed at top left corner of geometry view. Depending on the total load applied to the mat and underlying foundation system the thickness of mat foundations can vary from 1 ft 0 3 m to more than 20 ft 7 m.

A colored dot in the center of each mesh element indicates the reinforcing zone to which that element belongs. It is used to support storage tanks industrial equipment silos chimneys and various tower structures. Good video quantity dekhne ke liye during watching video top right side. Mat foundations are sometimes preferred for soils that have low load bearing capacities but that is going to need to support high wall or column loads.

It is used where the supporting soil has low bearing capacity. This foundation supports the entire building loads and safely transfer it to the ground. Mat or raft foundation is a large concrete slab supporting several columns in two or more rows. Mat foundation is also known as the raft foundation.

A mat foundation is a thick reinforced concrete slab supporting arrangements of columns or walls in a row or rows and transmitting the loads to the soil. The mat foundation which is sometimes known as a raft foundation is a combined footing that could cover the whole area under a structure supporting several walls and columns. For practical zoning layout refer to zone editing. The reinforcing system in the mat can be quite substantial with heavy reinforcing bar mats in the bottom top or both locations within the mat depth.
