Design Data

Column dimension along y-dir, D = 400 mm

Column dimension along x-dir, B = 400 mm

Main Bar size, db = 20 mm

Secondary Bar size, dt = 12 mm

Clear concrete cover, c = 40 mm

Ultimate Axial Load, Pu = 943.521 kN

Computation of Reinforcements

Po = Pu / 0.80 = kN

Ag = B*D = mm2

Po = Ag[0.85Fc'(1-ρ g) + ρ gFy]

ρg = ≈

As = ρ g*Ag = mm2

n = As/p*db2/4 = ≈

Computation of Capacity

Asact = n*p*db2/4 = mm2

Pcap = 0.80[0.85Fc'(Ag-Asact) + AsactFy]

Pcap = kN

Spacing of ties

Maximum spacing of ties

a. S = 16db = 320 mm

b. S = 48dt = 576 mm

c. S = least dimension = 400 mm

Use S = 320 mm

Spacing of ties from footing or slab =

Maximum of S/2 from the S above = 288 mm

Design Data

Column dimension along x-dir, B = 400 mm

Column dimension along y-dir, D = 400 mm

Main Bar size, db = 20 mm

Secondary Bar size, dt = 12 mm

Clear concrete cover, c = 40 mm

Ultimate Axial Load, Pu = 943.521 kN

Ultimate Moment Along x-axis, Mux = 170.532 kN-m

Ultimate Moment Along y-axis, Muy = 207.305 kN-m

Computation of Eccentricities

eall = 0.1B = 40 mm

ex = Mux/Pu = 180.740 mm

ey = Muy/Pu = 219.714 mm

x = ex + (B/2 - c - dt - db/2) = 318.740 mm

y = ey + (D/2 - c - dt - db/2) = 357.714 mm

Computation of Reinforcements

Consider x-direction

From the stress diagram

When ey = 0
##
Pnx = Pn = Pu/ = 1347.887 kN a
## 2.000
∑Fv = 0 a 1.000

For a balanced condition: Fy = Fs' = Fs

##
Pnx + AsFy = 0.85Fc'ab + AsFy a2
##
a = Pnx/0.85Fc'b = 143.637 mm

∑Mo = 0

Pnx(x) = 0.85Fc'ab(d-a/2) + AsFy(d-d')

Check for Column Integrity

Consider x-direction

From the strain diagram

(εy + 0.003)/d = 0.003/c

Fy/200000 + 0.003 = 0.003d/c

c = 600d/(600 + Fy) = 200.000 mm

a = βc = 170.000 mm

From the stress diagram

∑Fv = 0

Pnx + AsFy = 0.85Fc'ab + AsFy

Pnx = 0.85Fc'ab = 1595.280 kN 338

276
Mcapx = 0.85Fc'ab(d-a/2) + AsFy(d-d') = 475.400 kN-m 338

Consider y-direction

From the strain diagram

(εy + 0.003)/d = 0.003/c

Fy/200000 + 0.003 = 0.003d/c

c = 600d/(600 + Fy) = 200.000 mm

a = βc = 170.000 mm

From the stress diagram

∑Fh = 0

Pny + AsFy = 0.85Fc'ab + AsFy

Pny = 0.85Fc'ab = 1595.280 kN

Mcapy = 0.85Fc'ab(d-a/2) + AsFy(d-d') = 547.195 kN-m

Bresler Load Contour Equation

α α
(Mnx/Mcapx) + (Mny/Mcapy) ≤ 1.0

where α = 1.24
