Column Section Capacity (Load-Moment Interaction Diagram)

A 700 × 400 mm tied column is symmetrically reinforced as shown in figure below. Draw the
section capacity diagram of the column that bends about the major axis. The diagram is to be
based on the following point:
a) Pure axial compression Nuo (M = 0 )
b) Zero stress in tension bars
c) Balanced failure state T C

d) Pure moment capacity Muo ( N = 0 )

e) Pure axial tension
Given f’c = 40 MPa, fsy = 500 MPa. 4N28 4N28
