Illustrate about the strap footing?

In given demonstrates figure the exterior footing placed eccentrically under the exterior column so that property line limitations are not violated. Non-uniform pressure distribution is produced under the footing. This may lead to footing rotation. To balance this rotational or over turning effect, the exterior footing is connected by a stiff beam or strap to the nearest interior footing and uniform soil pressures under the footings are assumed.

Strap Footing

The strap may be considered as a flexural member. It is subjected to both bending moment and shear resulting from the forces Pi, and Re acting on the exterior footing. The applied moment is counter clock wise and Re will be greater than Pe. There is no eccentricity at the interior column between the column load Pe and the resultant soil pressure force Ri. Hence it is assumed that there will be no induced moment in the strap at the interior column.
