Design of Short
Columns
Factors affecting
the choice of
columns
Choice of Columns
Type
Fig. Below gives the
comparison of
interaction diagrams for
three columns, each
having same fc’ & fy,
same total longitudinal
steel, Ast, same gross
area, Ag. The columns
differ in arrangement of
reinforcement.
Choice of Columns Type
For eccentricity ratio, e/h, less than 0.1, spiral column is more
efficient in terms of load capacity. This economy tends to be
offset by more expensive formwork and by the cost of spiral.
For eccentricity ratio, e/h greater than 0.2,a tied column with
bars in the faces farthest from the axis of bending is the
most efficient.
Tied columns with bars in four faces are used for e/h ratios of
less than about 0.2 and also when moment exist about both
axis.
Types of lap splices required if all bars are lap spliced at every
floor
