Concrete Beam and Column Design Aid
Concrete Beam and Column Design Aid
1 Introduction
The tables and charts in this handbook are intended for use in design of singly and doubly reinforced
concrete beams with or without normal loads, solid as well as hollow rectangular reinforced concrete
columns subject to uniaxial and biaxial bending, and solid as well as hollow circular reinforced concrete
columns subject to uniaxial bending by the limit state design method. The tables and charts have been
based on the assumptions laid down in ES EN 1992-1-1:2015 [1], use being made of the parabolic-
rectangular stress-strain diagram for concrete throughout.

In using the General Design Tables 1(a) and 1(b) and Design Chart No. 1, moments are taken about the
tension steel, i.e.:

The General Design Table 1b, for doubly reinforced section is prepared for cover ratio of the
compression reinforcement, = d2/d = 0.07. Corrections for other cover ratios are obtained using Eq. 11
and 12. Eq. 9 and 10 are used to prepare the tables for ks and k s’.

The determination of the ultimate limit states of reinforced concrete sections through direct integration
of the stress distribution in the ultimate limit state is not immediately useful for the production of biaxial
interaction diagrams, because the corresponding points do not necessarily lie on planes of constant
normal force and therefore the trace does not represent a load contour. In the case of uniaxial bending
also, the points determined through direct integration would be clustered together in some region, while
widely dispersed in other regions, making it unsuitable for a systematic generation of interaction
diagrams.

Design Aid - ES EN 1992-1-1:2015
Therefore, an iterative procedure using a modified Newton-Raphson method was adopted to determine
the governing strain distribution in the ultimate limit state and with it the ultimate limit state in bending
with or without normal load, associated with an arbitrarily chosen initial vector Ri (Ni, Myi, M zi) through
a stepwise improvement of an approximate strain distribution in the ultimate limit state. Detailed
description of the iteration for the preparation of the interaction diagrams in the design aid is given in
Ref. [2, 3].
The shapes of the interaction diagrams of Circular, hollow circular, solid rectangular and hollow
rectangular columns with reinforcement uniformly distributed along the perimeter are affected by the
number of bars and their orientation relative to the direction of the neutral axis. Since the designer has
little control over the arrangement of the bars in such types of columns, the interaction diagram should
be computed using the least favorable bar orientation. For circular columns with more than 8 bars and
for rectangular columns with more than 16 bars, this problem vanishes since the bar placement
approaches a continuous ring [4, 5]. In the design aid 36 bars were used for solid and hollow circular
sections. For solid and hollow square columns 32 bars were used to approximate uniform distribution of
reinforcement. 48 and 72 bars were used for hollow rectangular columns with side ratio equal to 2 and 5
respectively.
The column interaction charts are based on design yield strain of steel, yd = 0.002, corresponding to
S460 grade steel.

3.4 Design of Slender Braced Column Subject to Uniaxial Bending Using Nominal Curvature
Method
Given:
Action Effects: factored normal load = 1360.0 kN
factored first order equivalent constant moment including
the effect of imperfections = 130.0 kNm; effective creep
ratio eff = 3.0
Geometry: lo 7.0 m (effective length)
Material Data: Concrete C25/30

Required: Quantity of reinforcement
Solution:
Assume column size, b/h = 400/400 mm with cover to reinforcement = 20 mm.
Reinforcement consists of 20 mm diameter bars and 10 mm diameter ties:
h' = 20+10+0.520 = 40
d'/h = 40/400 = 0.10
According to 6.1(4) the minimum eccentricity, ea = h/30 but not less than 20 mm

6. Appendix
In the general design chart No.1 proposed for the first time by Rüsch [6], all values necessary for design
are entered as a function of the relative moment about the centroid of the tension steel. This diagram can
be used for any concrete or steel grade. In the region where s1 is also negative, no accurate reading is
possible and the use of interaction diagrams described in section A.3 are recommended.
The graphs of the following are plotted as a function of the design relative moment resistance Sd,s:
The upper limits of the design relative moment resistance (without compression reinforcement) about
tension steel, for 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% moment redistribution are shown by the broken vertical lines
*Sd,s = 0.295, 0.252, 0.205, and 0.143 respectively. Compliance with these upper limits implies
compliance with the upper limit specification for the relative neutral axis depth, k x, given by Eq. (8) in
chapter 2, thus ensuring ductile response of the cross-section. For the cases that Sd,s > *Sd,s, ductile
behavior can be achieved by providing compression reinforcement.
The areas of reinforcement required are determined from the following equations:

The method involving dimension-bound expressions for the design of rectangular cross-sections for
bending with or without axial force can be applied as shown below:

The correction factors , and ’account for relative cover ratios that exceed d2/d = 0.07. In most
practical design situations, d2/d < 0.07 and the assumption that = ’ = 1.0 lies on the safe side.
A.3 Solid Rectangular Sections under Uniaxial Bending and Axial Load
These charts are used in the design of symmetrically reinforced columns subject to uniaxial bending
with axial load. They are prepared for steel grade S460 which is common for all interaction diagrams
and cover ratios, d’/h = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, and 0.25. Using the relative values of the design action
effects, Sd = NSd/(Ac fcd) and Sd = MSd/(Ac fcd h), the mechanical ratio of reinforcement can be
obtained from the charts and the total amount of reinforcement determined from:
Ac f cd
As ,tot (A.6)
f yd
A.4 Solid Rectangular Sections under Biaxial Bending and Axial Load
These charts are used in the design of symmetrically reinforced columns subject to biaxial bending with
axial load. The charts are prepared for different re-bar arrangements, and two cover ratios, h’/h = b’/b =
0.1, and 0.2. The mechanical reinforcement ratio is read from the charts using the relative values of
the design action effects Sd = NSd/fcd Ac, Sd y = MSd y/(fcd Ac h), and Sd z = MSd z/(fcd Ac b). The total
amount of reinforcement is then determined using Eq. A.6, and distributed in accordance with the
chosen reinforcement arrangement.
These charts are used in the design of symmetrically reinforced hollow square or rectangular columns
subject to biaxial bending with axial load. Compared to the solid rectangular section, the rectangular or
square hollow section has one additional parameter, which is the ratio of the wall thickness to the
corresponding edge length. In preparing the charts, it was assumed that the reinforcement is uniformly
distributed along the centerlines of the walls. The mechanical reinforcement ratio is read from the
charts using the relative values of the design action effects Sd = NSd/fcd Ac, Sd y = MSd y/(fcd Ac h), and
Sd z = MSd z/(fcd Ac b). The total amount of reinforcement is then determined using Eq. A.6.

These charts are used in the design of solid circular columns subject to uniaxial bending with axial load.
The mechanical reinforcement ratio is read from the charts using the relative values of the design
action effects Sd = NSd/fcd Ac, and Sd = MSd y/(fcd Ac h). The total amount of reinforcement is then
determined using Eq. A.6.
These charts are used in the design of hollow circular columns subject to uniaxial bending with axial
load. Compared to the solid circular section, the hollow circular section has one additional parameter,
which is the ratio of the inside radius to the outside radius. The mechanical reinforcement ratio is read
from the charts using the relative values of the design action effects Sd = NSd/fcd Ac, and Sd = MSd y/(fcd
Ac h). The total amount of reinforcement is then determined using Eq. A.6.
