A real sheet from the program with two footings. The labels are in English; RC-FOOTING also writes them in Georgian. Click a picture to open it full size.

RC-FOOTING drawing: plan, section and bar schedule of a 180 × 180 cm reinforced concrete pad footing — **Footing F-1.** Two 180 × 180 cm footings, 40 cm high, under 30 × 30 cm columns: the plan with dimensions, section 1-1 and the bar schedule. For both: 2.59 m³ of B25 concrete, 0.80 m³ of blinding and 249.12 kg of reinforcement.

RC-FOOTING section: pad footing with bottom and top meshes, ties, blinding, foundation beam and levels — **Section with both meshes.** Bottom mesh Ø16 and top mesh Ø10, both with 30 cm bent ends, Ø10 ties between them on a 20 × 20 cm grid, 10 cm of B-15 blinding, the foundation beam above, and levels from ±0.00 down to the bottom. Each bar shape is drawn with its dimensions.

RC-FOOTING section: 150 × 150 cm pad footing with a bottom mesh only, blinding and levels — **Bottom mesh only.** The top mesh and the ties are options. This 150 × 150 cm footing has a bottom mesh only: 8 Ø16 bars each way, with 30 cm bent ends.

What RC-FOOTING draws

Plan

The footing outline with the column, dimension chains on two sides and section marks. A rectangular footing gets a second section, 2-2.

Section

The blinding concrete, the bottom and top mesh with bent ends, ties between the meshes and labelled bars with their shapes. Levels run from ±0.00 down to the bottom; the foundation beam and the floor can be shown.

Schedule

The bar schedule in the same form as RC-SECTION, with the concrete and blinding volumes. Export to CSV for Excel.

Details

Interface language: Georgian and English, in the dialog and on the drawing.
Units: Centimeters. Scale 1:25, 1:50 or 1:100; you set the text height.
Input checks: Before drawing, the program checks that the column fits and that the height leaves room for both meshes, and it checks the covers, the bar spacing and the length of the bent ends. The limits are common practice, not a code check.
Layers: The drawing goes on FTG layers. Bars are drawn in colors by diameter.
Files: Bar schedule as a CSV file for Excel. The program remembers the last parameters.
Commands: FTGFTGAGAIN
Requirements: Windows and AutoCAD 2021 or newer.

Detail the column on the footing too

RC-SECTION draws the column that stands on the footing. RC Pack gives you RC-SECTION, RC-WALL, RC-STAIR and RC-FOOTING for $99 instead of $146.
