Hi,
I am having a Pump Foundation of 4.6m Length X 2.3m Width X 1.7m Depth. As per ACI 207.2R. A minimum of #6 Bars @ 12 Inch Center to Center Provided.
Is this reinforcement to be provided on each face only or to be provided as a cubic reinf as shown in the attachment below.

Old DIN rule is 50 kg/m3 of spatial reinforcement (like your sketch) for dynamically loaded foundations
