Now my 'equivalent' eccentricity is greater than 3' and my stand-by equations for factored bearing pressure are undefined.ĭo I need to increase the size of my footing? I shouldn't have to because it is sized based on service loads. Then I go to calculate my factored bearing pressure and increase my wind load by a factor of 1.6 and increase my gravity loads by something less than 1.6. outside the kern due to high moment due to wind and relatively low gravity force.but the footing is stable). Think of it like this: I size my footing based on service-level loads and (for example) it is 6' x 6' and the eccentricity is 2.5' from the center of the footing (i.e. I realize the ratios will change, that's not the issue.
