    Columns Shear Analysis

    This document provides design calculations for the lateral reinforcement of columns for a light rail project. It specifies the geometry and materials used, including a 72 inch column diameter with 6 inch clear cover to the spiral reinforcement. It then calculates the concrete area, reinforcement areas, and other dimensions. It determines that a 4 inch pitch for the spiral reinforcement satisfies requirements for confinement in the plastic hinge zone. It also calculates the shear capacity in the plastic hinge zone and outside of it, finding the reinforcement is adequate with pitches of 4 inches and 14.68 inches respectively.
