Complete the gravity path by sending column reactions into the footing.
  • Add a pole footing (or the footing type you use) for the column.
  • Link axial loads and choose your designed column as the source.
  • Confirm what comes through: Calcs.com pulls the vertical reaction, support location, and direction (X or Y) so you can pick the reaction you need.
  • Check capacity and embedment so the footing matches the full linked path, including cases where the footing sits at the limit (for example 100% utilization in the demo).
One video covers the whole path from beam to column to footing, including live updates. This article covers the column-to-footing step.
