I will calculate shallow footing bearing and settlement
Clear wall, footing, bearing, and settlement calculations
About this Gig
Sizing or reviewing a shallow footing? Get contact pressure, eccentricity and settlement sensitivity checked against the supplied reactions and soil information.
I provide focused shallow-footing calculations using client-supplied column or wall reactions, footing geometry and soil parameters.
My service can include:
- Service and factored reaction review
- Centered or eccentric loading cases
- Effective footing contact area
- Maximum and minimum soil pressure
- Bearing-value comparison
- Sliding checks where included
- Settlement estimate from supplied parameters
- Groundwater and embedment assumptions
- Footing-size sensitivity comparison
- Calculation summary with limitations
This service is suitable for isolated pad footings, wall footings and other defined shallow-foundation cases.
Send the applied loads, proposed footing dimensions and depth, soil profile, bearing and settlement parameters, groundwater level, adjacent foundation information, project city/state and relevant geotechnical excerpts.

FAQ
Can you estimate settlement without a soil report?
Only as a clearly identified sensitivity study using agreed assumptions. A reliable settlement estimate requires project-specific soil layers, stiffness or consolidation parameters and groundwater information
Can you compare several footing sizes?
Yes. Premium can compare up to three footing size options or review up to four similar footings. All options must use clearly defined reactions and soil parameters.
Does this include reinforcement calculations?
The standard scope covers soil contact pressure, bearing and settlement behavior. Reinforcement calculations require an expanded scope agreed upon before ordering
