WinFAD is a computer program developed to assist the bridge engineer in designing or checking spread and pile concrete footings subjected to eccentrically applied axial loads that produce biaxial bending moments.
Acceptable spread footing sizes and pile patterns are quickly and efficiently determined using WinFAD.
After the engineer selects footing plan dimensions, WinFAD determines footing thickness and areas of reinforcing steel which satisfy design specification requirements.
Individual loads are entered at the service level.
