Concrete pad & strip footing designer - bearing, one-way shear, punching shear, and flexure with interactive 2D section and draggable 3D isometric views.
3-19. Sizes footings from column/wall loads and net allowable soil bearing, then checks bearing pressure (with moment eccentricity), one-way (beam) shear, two-way punching shear, and flexural reinforcement. Interactive 2D section and draggable 3D isometric views update all checks live.
Concentrically or uniaxially loaded isolated pad and strip footings only. No pile, mat, combined, or biaxial footing design. Soil bearing capacity is engineer-entered (no geotechnical model).
Use for preliminary pad/strip footing sizing and reinforcement. Confirm soil parameters with the geotechnical report and have results reviewed by the engineer of record.

Every tool ships inside the CoLateral desktop workspace, so a result can stay attached to the project, the drawing, and the review trail it belongs to instead of ending up in a loose spreadsheet.
Outputs are design aids and stay in draft until a qualified engineer reviews and approves them.
