Notes

* Torsion is not considered for design.

* Only columns with rectangular or circular sections are designed.

* Each column is verified considering only the forces at the ends of the member.

* The transverse reinforcement is ordered from bottom to top of the column.

* Lu = Unsupported length.

* K = Effective length factor.

* Cm = A factor relating actual moment diagram to an equivalent uniform moment

diagram.

* Sway = True if column is considered unbraced in its local axis.

* Mc = Factored moment to be used for design. Considers the slenderness effects of

the
column. Mc = Mu*dns.

* dn2 = Amplification factor to account for small P-delta effects (P-d).

* Mn = Nominal moment strength.

* Mc/(f*Mn) = Strength ratio. The bar graphs indicate the relative ratio of Mc/
(f*Mn) for
each load condition. If a bar is shown in red the ratio is greater than one.
