Design of Edge Column (E7)
1 Load Combinations:
As defined in Etabs.
2 Force Data
For a column, force resultants for various Load cases and Load combinations are shown in table 2.1 and 2.2 below:
3 Design Checks:
Column Size: Materials Prop.:
Width (B): 500 mm Concrete: 25 N/mm2
Depth (D): 500 mm Steel: 500 N/mm2
3.1 Check for Axial Stress:
Lowest factored axial force = -698.677 kN
Factored Axial Stress = 2.795 N/mm2 2.000 N/mm2 > 0.1fck
4 a) Design of Column:
Design for Eathquake in X-direction: Design for Eathquake in Y-direction:
Pu = 2095.966 kN Pu = 2022.978 kN
Mu3 = 164.197 kN-m Mu2 = 195.177 kN-m
Pu/(fck*bD) = 0.335 Pu/(fck*bD) = 0.324
2 2
Mu2/(fck*bD ) = 0.053 Mu2/(fck*bD ) = 0.062
d' = 50 mm d' = 50 mm
d'/D = 0.10 d'/D = 0.10
Longitudinal Steel:
The required steel will be governed by the higher value of the above two values and hence, we take p/fck as:
p/fck = 0.022
i.e. % steel, p = 0.55 %
Which is Less than 0.8% (i.e. nominal requirement), so
p = 0.80 %
or, Ast = 2000.00 mm2
b) Checking of a section:
The column should be checked for bi-axial moment. Moment about either axis may occur due to the torsion of the building or due to
the minimum eccentricity of the axial load.
Checking for the critical combination with earthquake in the X-direction.
Pu = 2095.966 kN
Mu2 = 164.197 kN-m
e = l/500 + D/30 Cl. 25.4, IS 456:2000
= 15.67 mm
emin = 0.04 bD
= 20 mm
Hence, design eccentricity = 20.00 mm
Mu3 = Pu*e
= 41.919 kN-m
For, Pu/(fck*bD) = 0.335 and p/fck = 0.032

6 Design for Shear:
Shear Capacity of Column:
Assuming 50 % steel provided as tensile steel to be on the conservative side,
Ast = pt%/2
= 0.40 %
Hence, Permissble shear stress (τc)= 0.44 N/mm2 Cl. 40.2.1, IS 456:2000
And, Considering Lowest Pu = 698.677 kN
