Design of Column

The document provides the design of a column with an axial load of 400 kN, length of 3.3 m, and cross-section of 200x300 mm. It is determined to be a short column with an effective length of 2.145 m and a slenderness ratio of 10.725. The minimum eccentricity is calculated as 20 mm. The required area of longitudinal reinforcement is determined to be 561 mm2, with 12 mm diameter bars provided with 6 nos. Lateral ties of 8 mm diameter are specified at 200 mm spacing.

Design of Column

Data-
Axial load on column = 400 KN3737
Length (L) = 3.3 KN
Column size = 200X300
Adopt M20 and Fe415
Fck = 20 N/mm² Fy = 415N/mm²
Step1:- Effective length of column-
both end fixed l = 0.6 L
= 0.65 X 3.3 = 2.145 m
factored load Pu = 1.5 X 400 = 600 KN
Step2:-Slenderness ratio-
unsupported length/least lateral dimension
{Leff/D} = 2145/200 =10.725 ˂ 12
hence column is designed as short column
Step3:-Minimum Eccentricity-
emin = [(l/500)+(D/30)] or 20 mm

37
= 10.96 mm or 20 mm
emin = 20 mm
Check,
10.96/200 = 0.05 ≤ 0.05
OK
Hence, codal formula for short column is applicable.

Step4:- Main steel ( Longitudinal reinforcement )-


Pu = [(0.4XfckAc) + (0.67FyAsc)]
Ac = area of concrete
Asc = area of steel
Ag = gross area (200x300 = 60000 mm²)
600X10³ = 0.4X20X0.99Ag + 0.67X415X0.01Ag
Ag = 56072.15 mm²
Asc = 0.01 Ag = 561 mm²
Ascmin = 0.08 Ag = 448.57 mm² ≈ 449 mm²
provide 12Ø - 6Nos( Total Area of steel = 678.58 mm²)

38
Step5:- Design of Lateral Ties-
(1) Dia. of ties Øtie = Øtie / 4 =12/4 = 3 mm

Øtie = 8 mm (for Fe 415)


Spacing-
a) least lateral dimension = 200 mm
b) 16 X Ømain = 16X12= 192 mm
c) 300 mm
which ever is less
provide 8 Ø @ 200c/c
