Que.1. Drawing of C1 figure on given below in AutoCAD

Aim :- To draw the C1 figure of C.S of load bearing wall over spread footing

Introduction :- Wall footing is a type of footing which is used to support walls, both structurally and non- structurally. This footing takes load from walls of structure and transfer the load to soil below it. The load is transfered in such a way that load bearing capacity of the soil does not reduce. It also help in maintaing sufficient saferty against the overturning of the strucutre as well as sliding under it to avoid exccesive settlement.
