Column Final

The document describes the design of a reinforced concrete column with a lateral dimension of 450mm x 600mm, unsupported length of 3m, and axial load of 2500kN. It determines that the column is short and the code formula can be used. It calculates the required and provided area of compression steel as 5887.799 sqmm and 5890.486 sqmm respectively, with 12 compression bars of 25mm diameter. The design is acceptable with 8mm diameter lateral ties spaced at 300mm.

The code formula for axially loaded column can be used

Area of steel required in compression= 5887.799 sq.mm

Number of compression reinforcement provided = 12.0 nos

Area of compression reinforcement provided = 5890.486 sq.mm

The design is OK

Diameter of lateral ties = 8 mm

Spacing provided for the lateral ties = 300 mm
