A spreadsheet table used to specify pedestal parameters and anchor bolt layouts, if these are present for a support. Pedestal dimensions are needed to check punching shear for a mat foundation. For all other footing types these dimensions will be used to calculate critical design forces.

The unit used for this form is set through the Unit Setup tool on the Home ribbon tab.

Opens when Foundation Plan > Pedestal and Anchor Bolt is selected in the Main Navigator pane.

By default, the program considers that there is no pedestal. If a particular column location has a pedestal, you can select Yes radio button under Consider Pedestal field. Doing so makes depth and width columns editable.

When a pedestal is used, you also have the option to select a anchor bolt library in the Library Name column and then a anchor bolt layout from within that file in the Layout Name column.
