Minimum and maximum steel ratios of 1-8% are recommended, with a reasonable range of 1-3%. Clear cover requirements of 40-75mm are outlined depending on soil contact. Tie design considerations include bar diameter, shape, and longitudinal spacing. Spiral reinforcement provides increased ductility and the document discusses formulas for calculating confined concrete strength based on spiral ratio and properties. Minimum spiral ratios and pitch requirements are also provided.
An eccentric footing consists of two isolated footings connected by a structural strap or lever. This allows the footings to behave as a single unit while transferring both axial and moment loads from columns. Eccentric footings are more economical than combined footings when the soil can support higher pressures and the column spacing is large. They are used when spreading a footing to align load and area centroids is not possible, such as when a column is near a property boundary.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

1. Foundations:
The foundations of houses must carry
the dead loads (weight of the
structure) of the walls, roof and floors
etc
Introduction to foundation types:
strip foundation:
The strip foundation is basically a
strip, or ribbon, of in situ concrete running
under all the load bearing walls.
The foundation size can be determined by
referring to the Building Regulations
2. Piled foundations
In clay and other cohesive soils piles can be
used to distribute the loads into the ground
through the friction forces along the length of the
pile sides
Piles are usually made from insitu or
precast concrete but can also be steel and
timber
Raft foundations
Rafts are an expensive form of
construction, probably the most expensive of
the three, and are used where only a very
low load can be applied, for example, on soft
or variable ground
3. Concrete:
House foundations are invariably
formed in concrete. It is available in a
range of strengths and is usually brought
onto site ready-mixed as, and when,
required.
It is a mixture of several constituents
which behaves as a single material. In its
simplest form concrete comprises cement,
aggregate and water
4. The major constituent by weight in
concrete is aggregate - stone with a range
of particle size from 40mm down to
0.1mm. The aggregate is a mixture of:
coarse aggregate - naturally occurring
gravel or crushed rock
fine aggregate - sand or crushed rock.
The aggregate is bound together by
cement paste, a mixture of cement and
water
5. Properties
The properties of the cement paste are
extremely important and largely
determine the properties of the concrete:
it must be fluid enough for some time
after mixing to allow the concrete to be
placed and
6. it must then set and gain strength so that it
binds the aggregates together to make a
strong material
The mechanism by which cement sets and
hardens depends on the type of cement,
usually due to a chemical reaction
between the cement and the mixing water
(eg Portland cement)
7.
8. Reinforced concrete contains steel
reinforcing rods, usually 20-30mm in
diameter. These rods are positioned where
the principal tensile stresses will occur in
the structure, and then the concrete is
poured and compacted around the
reinforcement. Reinforced concrete is
therefore a composite material, where the
concrete takes the compressive forces and
the reinforcing steel takes the tensile forces.
11. Strip foundations, the most common
form, can either be 'traditional' or trench-fill
(see below). They are usually 500 to
700mm wide and as deep as necessary
for the type of ground
In weaker ground the foundation has to
be wider than 700mm to spread the
building load over an adequate area of
ground.
12. Reasons for choosing traditional strip
foundations:
Proven method, most builders are familiar with
traditional strip foundations
Mistakes (eg, setting out) are not too
expensive to rectify once concrete is poured
Builder may want work to keep bricklayer
occupied
Services will mostly cross the wall above the
concrete - so not an immediate problem
Cheaper than trench fill for wider foundations
13. 4.1DESIGN OF FOOTING FOR FOUNDATION
Load on the column ()= 171.975 KN
= 171.975 x 103 N
Self wt. of footing = 15% of column load
= 15/100 x 171.975
= 25.79KN
Factored load = 25.79 x 1.5
= 38.685 KN
Total load =171.975+38.685
=210.66KN
14. [Assume the soil]
Red soil
Safe bearing capacity of the soil =
200KN/m2
Area of the footing req. = 210.66/200 = 1.053
m2
15. Assuming Square footing = B = A =
1.053
= 1.026m
Say = 1.2m
Hence provide size of footing = 1.2 x 1.2m
18. Depth of footing from b.m consideration:
Critical section B.M. = B-b/2
Here l = 1.2m
B = 0.23m
B.M = 1.2 – 0.23/2 = 0.485 m (or) 485mm
19.
20. B.m = 119.42 x 103 x 1.2 x 0.4852/2
= 16.854 x 103 N-m
= 16.854 x 106 N-m
21. Using working stress method:
Qbd2 = B.m
Use m20 grade concrete = Q = 0.88
Fe 415 grade steel = st = 230 N/mm2
B = 0.23m = 230 mm
22. d = 288.566 mm
Let provide 10mm bars
In the form of mesh with a clear 40mm
23.
24. Effective cover = 40 + 10 + 10/2 = 55mm
Overall depth of footing:
= Effective depth + effective cover
= 288.566 + 55 = 343.566mm
Hence provided overall depth of footing =
360mm
Actual effective depth = 360 – 55 = 305
mm
d = overall depth – effective cover
d = 305 mm
25. Check for shear:
Depth for punching shear consideration
Punching load = column load – upward
pressure intensity on column area
= 171.975 x 103 – 119.42 x 103 x (0.23 x
0.23)
= 171975 – 6317.318
= 165.65 x 103 N
Ast = 2654.47 N
= 265.47/78.53 = 3.380 No. Say 4 No.
provide 4 No. of 10 mm bars in both
directions
27. Check for one way shear:
The critical section for one way shear is
taken at a distance equal to the effective
depth from the column face (i.e. let depth
of footing at edge = 200mm)
The overall depth at critical section
= 278.247
28.
29. The effective depth at critical section
d1 = 278.247 – 55 (effective cover)
d1 = 223.247mm
Shear force at critical section = S1
S1 = Upward pressure x length of
footing x shear constant
(Where shear constant = 0.144 as per
code)
S1 = 119.42 x 103 x 1.2 x 0.144
S1 = 20.635 x 103 N
30.
31. Breadth of the footing at the top of the
vertical section is:
33. Shear Areas q1 =
q1= 0.486
Shear stress is less than 1.0
So section is safe.
34. Check for two way shear:
The critical section for two ways Shear at the
distance of half of the effective depth from the
force of the column all around overall depth of the
footing at a distance d/2.
d/2 = 305/2 = 152.5 mm from the column face.
Permissible punching shear stress is 1 N/mm2
Equating the punching resistance to the punching
load
4 x 230 x D x l = 165.65 7 x 103N
35. Hence provide overall depth of 360mm
B.M Consideration for steel required:
Where B.m = 16.854 x 106 N-mm
J = 0.905
St = 230 N/mm2
d=305mm [Actual effective depth]
39. Critical perimeter:
= 4 x (dimension of column + effective depth)
b1=4 x (230 + 305)
b1=2140 mm
shear force at critical section = S1
S1= upward pressure x (l2 – dimension of column2)
S1= 119.42 x 103 x (1.22 – 0.232)
S1= 165.64 x 103N
Ks = 0.5 + Bc = 0.5 + 1 = 1.5
Ks = should not be taken greater than 1.0
40. So Ks = 1.0
1 = Ks x qc
Permissible Shear Stress = qc
= 1.0 x 0.44 = 0.44 N/mm2
q1 = 0.44 N/mm2
c
shear stress at critical section
q= S1/b1 x d1 = 165.64 x 103 /2140 x 254.69
v q= 0.30 N/mm2
v q> qc v
0.44 > 0.30
Hence the section is safe.
