I would like to see Clearcalcs implement this calculator that might look something like Example 9.5 Shear Wall Foundation Design in the book 'The Analysis of Irregular Shaped Structures" 2nd edition by R. Terry Malone. This would check the overall stability and sliding of the footing due to in plane lateral loads.

Hi Patricia, thanks for the insight here! We’ll definitely be taking a look at the example from the Malone text book 🙂
