The values of Po and Pb may be put in terms of Ast to
form a quadratic equation in terms of Ast.
The resulting equation may be solved for the unknown
steel area.
However, the solution is still lengthy and difficult to
solve for design.

∴ Compression steel is yielding at balanced stage,
fs′ = fy
Pu > Pb ⇒ φ = 0.65
A. EXACT SOLUTION
Assuming the compression to be yielding, the load
equation may be written as follows:

Biaxial Bending of a Column Section.
The strain, stress and force diagrams for any one of these
cases can be drawn perpendicular to the neutral axis, as
shown in Fig. 14.25.
From similar diagrams of the strain diagram, considering
compressive strains and stresses to be positive, the
following is obtained:
ε s1 distance of ε s1 from N.A. along c - dimension
=
0.003 c
= ratio of vertical corresponding distances
The above is true because lines perpendicular to the
neutral axis and the vertical lines are both intersecting a
set of parallel lines and hence the ratio between the
corresponding intercepts must be equal.

Calculate Mnλ = M nx2 + M ny2 and plot the point Pn, Mnλ.
9. The φ-factor is calculated for the maximum tensile
strain in any steel bar. If no steel bar is in tension, the
value of 0.65 is used.
10. A new value of the neutral axis depth is selected and
steps 2 to 9 are repeated until full curve is plotted.
APPROXIMATE MEHTODS OF ANALYSIS
AND DESIGN FOR BIAXIAL BENDING
Method Of Superposition
In this method, the reinforcement required for the two
uniaxial bending cases, (Pu, Mux) and (Pu, Muy), is
calculated separately and is then added to get the design
for the biaxial bending.
Equivalent Uniaxial Eccentricity Method
The biaxial eccentricities, ex and ey, are replaced by an
equivalent uniaxial eccentricity, eox, and the column is
designed for the uniaxial bending case, (Pn, Pn×eox).
