1. Draw C1 figure using AutoCAD.

Aim: Draw C1 of C.S (Cross section) of load bearing wall over spread footing.

Introduction: Wall footing is type of footing which used to support walls both structural and non-structural. This footing takes load from walls of structure and transferred such that the load bearing capacity of the soil does not reduced. It also maintains sufficient safety against overturning and sliding and also avoids excessive settlement.
