The following enhancements have been made to general mode isolated footings.

  • The ability to use a variable soil bearing table instead of a single soil bearing value for isolated footings designed to the US code.
  • The ability to specify a minimum and maximum size to use in the design of top reinforcing bars has been added to the Concrete and Reinforcing form.
  • The ability to specify a separate clear cover for pedestals on an isolated footing has been added to the Cover and Soil form.
  • The terminology used for cohesive and cohesionless soil details has been clarified in the Cover and Soil form.
  • The calculation sheets for isolated footings now include dynamically drawn figures and plots.
