Criterion for spacing of normal links
Min. Longitudinal Bar dia X 16 = 192 mm
Min. dimension of column = 500 mm
Max. 300 mm = 300 mm
Least lateral edge dimension/2 = 250
Provided spacing = 175 mm

per IS 13920 - 2016

6 x Smallest Longitudinal Bar Dia = 6 x 12
= 72 mm
Hence Link Spacing S, = 70 mm
Hoop dimension, h = 104 mm
Gross area of column, Ag = BxD
= 250000 sqmm
(B- 2 x cover to Link) x (D- 2 x cover
Core area of column, Ak =

= 173056 sqmm
Area of special confining link, Ash1 = (0.18 x S x h x (Fck/Fy) x (Ag/Ak-1))
= 23.31 sqmm
Area of special confining link, Ash2 = (0.05 x S x h x (Fck/Fy) )
= 14.56 sqmm
Area of special confining link, Ash = Maximum (Ash1,Ash2)
= 23.31 sqmm
Diameter of special confining link = 8 mm
= > Max. longitudinal bar dia / 4

Zone for special confining links -
criterion
Max. Size of column,D = 500 mm
Clear height/6 = 457.17 mm
Minimum value = 450 mm

Hence length of confining zone = 500 mm
