Step 1
P - axial
Vy and Vz - shear
My and Mz - moment
Step 2
■ Collect the seismic forces in the
pier cap and columns from
multimodal computer analysis or
other methods
P - axial
Vy and Vz - shear
My and Mz - moment
1% < ρ < 4%
Vp = M1 + M2
He
where:
M1 = moment at top of column
= Mn * 1.3 - concrete column
M2 = moment at bottom of column
= 1.25 * Mp - steel pipe
He = effective height of column
= H + lm (see figure 1)
Step 6
■ Determine the size and pitch of
the spiral in the column
Vult < φ * Vn
where:
φ = 0.85 (16th) 0.9 (LRFD)
Vn = nominal shear capacity
see AASHTO code or
UCSD shear design
equations
ld = 0.025*db*Fy/ √ (f’c)
where:
db = diameter of bar
Fy = rebar yield strength (psi)
f’c = concrete strength (psi)
Vult < φ * Vn
where:
φ = 0.85 (16th ed.) 0.9 (LRFD)
Vn = Vc + Vs
Vult = Vdl + Vp-cap
Vp-cap = shear in cap beam
due to plastic hinging
of column
= 1.5*Mp (approx.)
Scol
s = 4*Ah < hb
D’*ρs 4
where:
s = welded hoop spacing
Ah = area of welded hoop
e.g. #5 hoop = 0.31 in2
Step 9
■ Continued
S < 4 * A h < hb
D’ * ρs 4
fh = Vc_
bj*hb
vj = Mc _
hb*D*bj
Mc = moment in the column
Vc = shear in the column
Pc = axial load in the column
D = column diameter
hb = height of cap beam
bj = width of cap beam and
<√2*D
< D + hb

Step 11
■ Determine the extra amount of
shear reinforcement (paired
hoops) required outside the joint
region, Aovj
where:
Asc = area of column
longitudinal steel
λo = overstrength factor = 1.4
Shear Reinforcement Outside Joint
where:
Asc = area of column
longitudinal steel
λo = 1.4
Shear Reinforcement Inside Joint
where:
Asc = area of column
longitudinal steel
λo = 1.4
