These components come from TxDOT Project 0-6953, which evaluated the structural behavior of drilled shaft footings using strut-and-tie modeling techniques. The project provided a design framework for footings subjected to complex load paths in deep foundation systems.

Researchers Yousun Yi and Hyunsu Kim published their findings in the ACI Structural Journal, offering insights into optimizing footing geometry, reinforcement, and construction safety.
