i would have thought that is something you would have learned in engineering school :-).

 

Are you looking for how do do analysis to determine you placed the correct footings? checkout some of these videos on structural analysis.

Or are you looking for engineering formulas on how to design the correct footing.

First, it is something you learn in the Engineering School

Second, it is determined in the design drawings according to the code you are using

 

If my answer helped you please mark as a solution, this helps others to find answers quickly........
