Spread Footing's Geometry/Continuous Footing's Geometry

Setting	Description
Angle	Footing major axis angle in relation to the model global x-axis. An angle of 0.00 indicates that the footing major axis is parallel to the global x-axis.
Length, Width, Thickness	These dimensions indicate the user defined upper limit on the footing dimension in the given direction. If (Max) is shown after the dimension, the value is the maximum permissible dimension in the given direction. Therefore the footing can be optimized to any dimension between the global minimum footing dimension and the Max dimension. If (Abs) is shown after the dimension, the value is the fixed dimension in the given direction. The footing dimension will not be optimized in the given direction.

Description

Angle

Footing major axis angle in relation to the model global x-axis. An angle of 0.00 indicates that the footing major axis is parallel to the global x-axis.

Length, Width, Thickness

These dimensions indicate the user defined upper limit on the footing dimension in the given direction. If (Max) is shown after the dimension, the value is the maximum permissible dimension in the given direction. Therefore the footing can be optimized to any dimension between the global minimum footing dimension and the Max dimension. If (Abs) is shown after the dimension, the value is the fixed dimension in the given direction. The footing dimension will not be optimized in the given direction.
