Hi,
I am designing a combined footing based on ACI 318-14 using STAAD Foundation Advance. Upon checking the calculation sheet (see attached file) from the software, I couldn’t figure out how the following values were computed by the software:
1. One-way shear parallel to longitudinal dimension (1314.76kN) – page 08
2. Top surface distribution reinforcement moment (859.2245kNm) – page 10
Can anyone please explain how STAAD Foundation computes these values?

From within the software help go to Verification Manual and refer to section 5 which contain details of how the different values are calculated for the ACI code. If you still have questions, please reach out to Bentley technical support.
