SUMMARY OF LOADS on COLUMN

DEAD LOADS
ROOF 0 kN
ROOF DECK 112.9248 kN
3RD FLOOR 138.9248 kN
2ND FLOOR 160.9216 kN
TOTAL DEAD LOAD = 412.7712 kN

LIVE LOADS
ROOF DECK 76.64 kN
3RD FLOOR 76.64 kN
2ND FLOOR 76.64 kN
TOTAL LIVE LOAD = 229.92 kN

EARTHQUAKE LOAD
20%(DL + LL) 128.538 kN

Solve for Pu:

1.2 DL + 1.6 LL + 1.0 E

Pu = 991.7356 kN

Ag = 56525.72919

For Flextural = 3.0Ag

3.0Ag = 169577.1876 mm2

b = 411.797508 =450 mm

Recommended :

Use 450 mm x 450 mm column dimension
