DESIGN OF COLUMN (EXTERIOR)

TYPICAL FROM FOUNDATION TO ROOF BEAM LEVEL

COLUMN - C2

Mu (top) 461.178 kN-m main bars 20 mm

Mu (bottom) 461.178 kN-m stirrups 12 mm
Pu 493.716 kN lu 3,200 mm
M1b 461.178 kN-m h 500 mm
M2b 461.178 kN-m b 500 mm
φ 0.70 r 150 mm
k 0.65 fy 415 Mpa
fc' 27.60 Mpa

Check the SLENDERNESS EFFECT:

(If the condition is TRUE, it is therefore SHORT COLUMN)

13.867 < 22.000

Since the condition is : TRUE

DESIGN AS SHORT COLUMN

The axial load capacity of the tied column is given by:

Pu = φ 0.80 [0.85 fc’ (Ag – Ast) + fy Ast]

where Ag = 250,000.00 sq.mm.

φ = 0.70

493.716 (1000) = 0.70 (0.80) [0.85 (27.6) (250000 – Ast) + 415 (Ast)]

Solving for the area of steel, Ast: [0.01 Ag ≤ Ast ≤ 0.06 Ag ]

Ast = -12,727.60 sq.mm.

Ast / Ag = -0.05091 not OK! Use Ast = 0.01 Ag

using 20 - mm main bars: Spacing of ties: using 12 - mm stirrups

2
Ast = 2,500.00 mm smallest of: 16 x dbar = 320
2
Ab = 314.16 mm 48 x dtie = 576
N = 7.96 say 8 pc/s. least column dimension = 500

Therefore: USE 8 - 20-mm 𝛟 main bars. USE 12-mm 𝛟 ties at 320 mm o.c.
