a portion of a foundation/substructure that transmits load unto the soil/ground.
Yes, from a peace footing to a war footing.
First footing is a custom celebrated in Scotland on New Year's Eve.
The American military strategy in the Philippines shifted from a conventional footing against Spain to a suppression footing against the insurrection. During the Filipino uprising American soldiers had to make this challenging change
A batter, plinth or spur is the angled footing of a wall or tower. It was used to counter undermining or to cause dropped missiles to ricochet horizontally. This defensive invention also acted as a deflecting surface for battering rams, thus making them less effective.
it depends on a different, another, basis or foundation..
A base for a wall in the foundation of a structure; a footing is wider than the wall to spread the weight over a large area

A footing is at the base of a wall. It is wide section meant to give the wall something to rest on so the wall will not push into the ground. Think of an upside down capital T.
When designing a retaining wall footing, key considerations include the type of soil, the height and weight of the wall, drainage needs, and any potential environmental factors. The footing must be strong enough to support the wall and prevent it from shifting or collapsing. Proper design is crucial to ensure the stability and longevity of the retaining wall.
I think it is if its stiff against the wall or not. (Moment) I beleeve you are drawing in Revit?

It depends on what load is on the wall.
The best practices for determining the appropriate footing for a retaining wall involve considering factors like the wall's height, soil conditions, and the weight it will support. It's important to consult with a structural engineer to ensure the footing is designed correctly for stability and safety.
the legging/footing
A or the footing is at the base of the foundation. Usually but not always 3 times the width of the wall. This just make a base for the wall to sit on so that it doesn't push into the ground. Without it, the wall would act as a knife and with the weight of the structure, cut into the ground.
The recommended footing depth for a block wall to ensure stability and structural integrity is typically around 1/3 to 1/2 of the wall's height. This depth helps distribute the weight of the wall evenly and prevent it from shifting or collapsing.
There are some basic design principle that need to be applied when calculating the footing of a design in sandy soil. You should generally widen the footing for softer soil to allow more room for the bearing area. Since the cantilevered retaining wall is 4 foot then the footing should be 8 foot.
