I'm basing my answer on two drawings, but I'll do further research.

A wall footing or strip footing is a continuous strip of concrete that serves to spread the weight of a load-bearing wall across an area of soil. It is the component of a shallow foundation.

Wall footing is also known as continuous footing built specifically to support walls. These building concrete footings are placed below bearing walls that are located at both interior and exterior of a structure.

For bearing walls at building’s interior, these footings can be poured monolithic with the slab as shown on detail 2. Compare that with the continuous footings at exterior such as the footing detail 1.
Though these two footing details have the capacity to carry the same amount of vertical load, the footing in detail 1 has additional purpose.

In addition to supporting bearing walls, these footings provide lateral support for the building. During high wind or earthquake events, continuous footings provide the counter balance forces necessary to stabilize structure from falling over.

I think 'continuous' is the translation of 'corrido'.

Sorry, I should have written 'corrida'.

Continuous Footing

Continuous footing, wall footing, strip footing, and spread footing, all refer to the same type of footing. Since these footings are very similar, their footing design process are understandably the same.

Shown on detail 1 below, is a cross section of these footings which are typical at perimeter of the house plan shown here. Since this house is exposed to freezing temperature, they must be built below the frost line, in this case it is 30 inches or 2'-6". In the event of an earthquake or hurricane, a properly designed and constructed footings provide the necessary counter balance forces that enable a house or a building to withstand the destruction forces of nature.
Their massive strength and weight is the reason shear walls and braced frames are anchored by footings that are continuous.

Shown as dash lines in the perimeter of the house addition plans below are these footings. They are linked together so that they can work as a unit.
