COLUMN QUANTITY:
Let us consider there are 4 columns of size 230 x 350 mm and no of bars in each
column is 6 and bar diameter is 12 mm and stirrups spacing is 150 mm c/c.
Consider Length of column above ground level is 3 M and below ground is 2 M.
So cutting length of bar will be near about 6 M (Considering 1 M bar laps for
footing )
So for 6 M height calculation for main steel will be= 0.89 kg x 6 m Height x 6 no
of bars = 32.04 kg steel …. (For 1 column)

Total steel required for one column for stirrups will be = 2.12 m x 40 nos x 0.39 kg
= 33.07 kg… (Stirrups for one column)
