D1.1Task description

A square block foundation for precast reinforced concrete columns is to be designed. The recess in the block foundation is formed using a rough (serrated) formwork surface. The design shall be carried out in accordance with DIN EN 1992-1-1/NA 1.5.2.5 and 1.5.2.6 for loads typical of building construction, which are to be assumed as predominantly static loads.

Based on a site investigation report, the following conditions are to be assumed: non-cohesive subsoil, aggressive to concrete, frost-free.

Two load cases are derived from the column design:

  1. Edge column: uniaxial bending with slight eccentricity (installed as an edge column)

  2. Internal column: design central compressive force (final state as an internal column)

The following building materials are used:

  • Concrete C 30/37 for the foundation

  • Concrete C 40/50 for the precast column

  • Reinforcement: B500B reinforcing steel bars (high-ductility)

The geotechnical verification of bearing capacity is not covered in this example.

D1.2Theoretical foundations

The following design model is based on the assumption that the stresses acting at the top of the foundation from the column (axial force and moment) are transferred into the foundation via vertical shear stresses. For this to occur, the column base, infill concrete and foundation must act together as a monolithic structure.

However, this load transfer is only possible under the following conditions:

  • The side surfaces of the column base and the inner surfaces of the socket recess are formed using corrugated or serrated formwork with a profile depth d > 10 mm.

  • The infill concrete must have the same strength as the foundation (generally lower than that of the column). Furthermore, the concrete must be well compacted.

D1.4Material

Minimum strength class, concrete cover
Exposure class for reinforcement corrosion
due to carbonation → XC2 (Foundation element)
Minimum concrete strength class → C16/20
Exposure class / moisture class for concrete deterioration
due to mildly aggressive concrete → XA1
Moisture class → WF
Minimum concrete strength class → C25/30
Selected: C30/37 XC2, XA1, WF

Concrete cover due to exposure class XC2:

→ Minimum concrete cover cmin,dur = 20–5 = 15 mm
+ allowance Δcdev = 15 mm
= nominal concrete cover cnorm = 30 mm

to ensure bond: cmin,b ≥ bar diameter

This results in the placement dimension for the outer reinforcement:
Ø 14 stirrups: cv,Bü = 30 mm
