Overview
This course is specifically designed for Ohio-licensed engineers to qualify as a "timed and monitored" online course. The course contains an automatic timer that prevents the user from accessing the quiz and earning a certificate of completion until the minimum amount of study time has been met. This achieves the Ohio Board's intent that an online course should be "paced" by the provider. For more information, please see the Ohio state requirements. This course may also be accepted in other states (see the "Board Acceptance" tab above).

In Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Guidance for Spread Footings , you'll learn ...

  • How to conduct feasibility evaluations for spread footing designs.
  • How to apply LRFD design methodologies in practical scenarios.
  • How to evaluate service limits and calculate appropriate resistance factors.
  • How to incorporate geotechnical design considerations into spread footing projects

The design and construction of spread footings require a comprehensive understanding of Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) principles to ensure safety, efficiency, and regulatory compliance. This course provides a structured exploration of LRFD methodologies tailored to the unique challenges of spread footing design. By addressing essential terminology, feasibility evaluation, and the integration of geotechnical considerations, participants will gain the tools necessary to make informed design decisions.

Engineers involved in structural or geotechnical design will benefit from this course's focus on service limits, resistance factors, and their applications in real-world scenarios. The course demonstrates the LRFD approach by presenting step-by-step guidance, making it an invaluable resource for professionals seeking to enhance their design capabilities. Whether designing for routine projects or tackling complex site conditions, this course equips participants with the practical knowledge to achieve optimal footing performance and reliability.

By bridging the gap between theoretical principles and practical application, this course ensures engineers remain at the forefront of industry standards. The content is designed to support professional growth and adherence to best practices, making it a must-have for those who aim to deliver efficient and code-compliant spread footing designs. Students will leave with actionable insights to address complex geotechnical challenges confidently.
