Item Unit Formula: Design of Column C4 by Bresler Method

This document summarizes the design of column C4 using the Bresler method. It lists the design parameters such as the compressive strength of concrete, yield strength of reinforcement, column dimensions, axial force and bending moments. It then shows the calculations to determine the nominal axial force capacity based on the Bresler equation, and checks that the applied axial force is less than the nominal capacity. It also specifies the tie bar diameter and spacing.
