Design of Pedestal For Seismological Stations: Slenderness Ratio of The Column

The document summarizes the design of a pedestal for a seismological station. It provides the dimensions of the pedestal as 3000mm length, 1220mm diameter, and 765mm base width. It calculates the slenderness ratio as 7.84. It determines the eccentricity of the column is less than code limits, classifying it as a short axially loaded column. It calculates the required steel reinforcement as 28255.4mm2 and designs it with 16 bars of 25mm diameter.

Design of Pedestal for Seismological Stations

Dimension of the Pedestal, L = 3000, D = 1220 & b = 765


Slenderness ratio of the column
Since the pedestal is cantilever, effective length is 2l i.e. 3000*2
= 6000
= 7.84

= 4.91
Eccentricity of Column along both the axis
+ Dx/30
Ex = 12 + 25.3 = 37.3mm
Ey= 12 + 40.66 = 52.66mm
0.05Dx = 38.25mm
0.05 Dy = 61mm

6000 47469
Since Ex & Ey is less than 0.05Dx & 0.05Dy, column is Short
Axially Loaded Column
Load on the Column
Pu = 1.5 x 100

Pu = 04 fck Ac+ (0.67 fy 0.4 fck) Asc


150 x 103 = 0.4 x 25 x (765 x 1220) + [0.67 x 500 0.4 x 25] Asc
150 x 103 = 9333000
Asc =- 28255.4mm2
