SHORT CONCRETE COLUMNS AXIALLY LOADED DESIGN

Reference: ACI 318-05, 7.10.5; 10.3.6.2 Compresion Strenght Design (tie stirrups):

Loads Ag = b x h = 144.0 in2

Dead Load, D= 20.0 Kips Ast = rg x Ag = 1.44 in2
Live Load, L= 6.0 Kips 1
10.3.6.2. axially loaded column equation:
Material Properties
1. Concrete f Pn (max) = .80*f*(.85*f´c*(Ag-Ast)+fy*Ast) = 252.0 Kips
compresive strength, f´c =
f Pn (max) > Pu D/C = 0.13
2. Steel Section compply with Compression Capacity!!
Minimun yield stress, fy = 60.0 Ksi
reinforced ratio: rg = 0.01 1 longitudinal bars selection:

Section Properties 4 = 1.77 in2

+
Asummed transverse Section: 0 = 0.00 in2
bxh =

Determination of Ultimate Load: Total Area = 1.77 in2

Ok!!
Pu = 1.2*D + 1.6*L = 33.6 Kips

7.10.5.1 Ties vertical spacing s: use minimun of, So / 2 = 6 in

a. 48 x tie bar diameter = 18 in

b. 16 x diam. max. Lenght bar= 12 in
c. minimun dimension of col = 12 in
So = 12 in
b = 12

h = 12 So / 2 = 6 in
