Bridge Column Design Based On AASHTO 17th & ACI 318-14: Input Data & Design Summary

This document provides input data and design calculations for a reinforced concrete bridge column. Key details include: - The column has a 120" x 48" cross section and is designed for an axial load of 8000 kips and factored moments of 18000 ft-k. - Reinforcement includes 15 #4 bars and 5 #4 ties. Concrete strength is 5 ksi. - Calculations check the column's capacity for various load combinations based on AASHTO and ACI code specifications. - Additional calculations determine the magnified moment of 2378 ft-k for the column, accounting for its slenderness as a sway column. The design is found to be adequate based on code checks.
