foundation design with uplift - rohailiyaz - 10-21-2010

can anyone provide some guidelines or excel sheet or any material regarding footing design with uplift(for steel structures).
i know there are many spread sheets available but most of them don't incorporate the effect of uplift

I dont see any Excel sheet for the foundation uplift.
1. Use SAFE or PCA mats for uplift problem.
2. If you designing isolated footing and the uplift is due to the moment from the column you can use RISA foot.
3. RCC spread sheet does not consider uplift.

Even prokon footing design module can do the needful with uplift loads entered (just in case).
