Design of Columns by Limit State Design Method
Q1) What are assumption for steel and concrete
A1)
ASSUMPTION
The assumptions for strength style of columns may be summarized as follows.
1. Strain of steel and concrete is proportional to distance from basic axis
2. Most usable compression strain of concrete is zero.
3. Stress, psi, in longitudinal reinforcing bars equals steel strain s times twenty nine,000,000 for strains below yielding, and equals the steel yield strength ƒ y, tension or compression, for larger strains
4. Durability of concrete is negligible.
5. Capability of the concrete in compression, that is assumed at a most stress of , should be in line with check results. An oblong stress distribution zero.85ƒc could also be used. Depth of the parallelogram could also be taken as a 1c, wherever c is that the distance from the neutral axis to the acute compression surface and one zero.85 for ƒ c 4000 psi and zero.05 less for every a thousand psi that ƒ c exceeds 4000 psi, however one mustn't be taken but zero.65.
Q2) Explain minimum and maximum eccentricity
A2)
Minimum Eccentricity (Clause 25.4 of IS456: 2000)
It is noted that in practical construction, columns are rarely truly concentric.
Even a theoretical column loaded axially which have the accidental eccentricity due to incorrect accuracy in construction or variation of materials etc.
Accordingly, all axially loaded columns which designed considering the minimum eccentricity which shows in Clause 25.4 of IS456 and given below.
E x min ≥ greater of (+) or 20 mm
E y min ≥ greater of (+) or 20 mm
Where l, D and b are the unsupported length, larger lateral dimension and least lateral dimension, respectively
Maximum Eccentricity (Clause 39.3 of IS456: 2000)
For the column to be short, as per Clause 39.3 the eccentricity shall not be more than 0.O5D or 0.05b.
Q3) Explain short column under axial compression write also steps to determine
A3) Assumptions (Clause 39.1 of IS456: (000)
The maximum compressive strain in form of the concrete in axial compression is taken as 0.002.
Strain in concrete and steel are equal.
The maximum compressive strain at the highly compressed extreme fiber which is form in concrete subjected to axial compression and bending and If is no tension on the section which is 0.0035 minus 0.75 times the strain at the least compressed extreme fiber.
Stress in steel is governed by characteristic stress-strain curve of steel in compression. The stress-strain curve of steel in compression is the same as in tension.
The column is short.
Equation for Short axially Loaded Tied Columns (Clause39.3 of IS456: 2000)
According to Clause 39.3 of IS456: 2000, when the eccentricity does not exceed 0.05 times the lateral dimension, the member may be designed by the following equation
P u = 0.4 f c k Ac + 0.67 f y A s c
Where,
P u = factored axial load on the member,
F c k= characteristic compressive strength where P. of the concrete,
A c =area of concrete,
F y= characteristic strength of the compression reinforcement, and
A s c = area of longitudinal reinforcement for columns.
Equation of Short Axially Loaded Columns with Helical Ties (Clause39.4 of IS 456: 2000)
The code further recommends that the ratio of volume of helical reinforcement to the volume of core shall not be less than 0.36 (Ag / Ac - 1) (f c k / f y), in order to apply the additional strength factor of 1.05 (Clause 39.4.1).
Accordingly, the governing equation of the spiral columns may be written as
P u = 1.05 (0.4 f c k Ac + 0.67 f y A s c)
= 0.4 f c k Ac + 0.67 f y A s c
The pitch of helical reinforcement is determined using the following relation as per CI 39.4.1 of IS456: 2000.
P <
Where,
Dc = Diameter of concrete core,
D s p = Diameter of spiral reinforcement,
A s p =Area of cross-section of spiral reinforcement,
p= Pitch of spiral reinforcement.
Note:
The pitch and diameter of the spiral reinforcement should also satisfy Clause 26.5.3.2 of 19456: 2000.
Design Procedure for Axially Loaded Short Columns
Step 1: Find effective length.
Step 2: Find the minimum eccentricity and check the type of column.
Step 3: Find the area of steel
Use, P u = 0.4 f c k Ac + 0.67 f y A s c
Step 4: Design of lateral ties

The least lateral dimension of the column
Sixteen times the smallest diameter of longitudinal reinforcement bar which can tied.

Solution:
Step 1: Check for minimum eccentricity
e min = 21 mm or 20 mm ………….whichever is greater
e min = 21 mm
e max = 0.05 D = 0.05 x 450 = 22.5 mm
e min < e max , the formula given for axial load I applicable
Step 2: Factored load P u = d x p = 1.5 x 2000 = 3000 KN
Step 3: Longitudinal reinforcement:
P u = 0.4 f c k Ac + 0.67 f y A s c
Ag = 450 x 400 = 180000 mm2
Ac = Ag – A s c
= 180000 – A s c
3000 x 103 = 0.4 x 20 x (180000 – A s c) + 0.67 x 415 x A s c
= 1.44 x 106 – 8 A s c + 278.05 A s c

Q5) What are requirements for reinforcement
A5)
Types of Column Reinforcement
A column has two types of reinforcements as mention as below,
Longitudinal or Main Reinforcement (Clause 26.5.3.1 of IS456: 2000)
The longitudinal reinforcement resists axial load and bending moment.
The transverse reinforcement resists shear force, shares a small fraction of axial load if provided in the form of helical reinforcement, keeps main reinforcement in position and prevents longitudinal bars from buckling.
The longitudinal reinforcing bars in the form of vertical steel are used to carry the compressive loads along with the concrete. The following are the IS requirement for design of column:
IS requirement for design of column

Minimum amount of steel should not be less than 0.80 % of gross cross-sectional area
Amount of area should not be more than 4 % of the gross cross-sectional area of the column
In no case, it does not exceed 6 % when bars from column below have to be lapped with those in the column under consideration.
(B) Minimum Number of longitudinal steel

Nominal cover in case of a column equals to (i) 40 mm (ii) the diameter of longitudinal bar whichever is greater.
In case of columns of width 200 mm or less whose longitudinal bar not exceed 12 mm diameter, the nominal cover of 25mm may be used.
Transverse or Lateral Reinforcement (Clause 26.5.3.2 of IS456: 2000)
Clause 26.5.3.2(b) of IS 456: 2000 stipulates the guidelines of the arrangement of transverse reinforcement as under.
As per Clause 26.5.3.2 (b)(1), If the longitudinal bars are not spaced more than 75 mm on either side, transverse reinforcement shall only go round corner and alternate bars for the purpose of providing effective lateral supports.
As per Clause 26.5.3.2 (b)(2),If longitudinal bars spaced at a distance not exceeding 48 times the diameter of the tie are effectively tied in two directions, additional open ties are provided in between longitudinal bars
As per Clause 26.5.3.2(b) (3),.For longitudinal bars in compression members are placed in more than one row
As per Clause 26.5.3.2(b) (3(i),Transverse reinforcement is provided for the outer-most row in accordance with (a) above, and
As per Clause 26.5.3.2 (b)(3(ii),no bar of the inner row is closer to the nearest compression face than three times the diameter of the largest bar in the inner row.
The diameter of such transverse reinforcement need not, however, exceed 20 mm

Q6) Explain short column under axial loads with uni axial bending
A6)
Design of Short Columns under Axial Load with Uni axial Bending
The design of columns is involves with the determination of percentage of longitudinal steel p, assuming or knowing the dimensions b and D, grades of concrete and steel, distribution of longitudinal bars in two or multiple rows and d'/D from the analysis or elsewhere. This can be minimised by using the design charts prepared by IS456 in SP-16.
The procedure to design the column using design charts of SP-16 is explained below:
Step 1: Assume the size of the column
Assume the size of the column and calculate d'/D.
Step 2: Calculate P u / f c k b D and M u / f c k b D2
Step 3: Selection of the design chart
Select suitable the design chart from SP-16 for the corresponding to d'/D, grade of concrete and distribution of steel.
Step 4: Determination of the percentage of longitudinal steel
Locate the point of intersection of P u /f c k b D and M u / f c k b D2 and find the suitable value of p/f c k
Thus, amount of longitudinal steel is obtained by using the following relation.
A s c = p b D /100 f c k
Step 5: Design of transverse reinforcement
Design the transverse ties as per the section 9.3.2.1,
Q7) Explain design of column under biaxial loading by design charts
A7)
DESIGN OF COLUMN UNDER BIAXIAL LOADING BY DESIGN CHARTS
IS Code Method for Design or Columns under Axial Load and Biaxial Bending (Clause 39.6 of IS456: 2000)
A Clause 39.6 of IS456 recommends the following Simplified formula, based on "Breslers load Contour Method", for the biaxial loaded columns. The relationship between Mu xx and Mu yz for a particular value of P u = Pu z expressed dimensional form is
(M u x / Mu x 1) + (M u y / M u y 1) ≤ 1
Where,
Mu x and Mu y= moment about x and y axes due to design load
Mux1and Mu y 1= maximum uni axial moments the column can take under the actual load P by bending about x and y axes.
n is related to P u,/P u z where
P u z= design load on the column
P u z= 0.45 f c k Ac + 0.75 f y A s c (I e value P u of when M = 0)
P u z= 0.45 f c k Ag (0.75 f y – 0.45 f c k ) A s c
n = Exponent whose value is to be taken as follow:
Where,
Ag= gross area of the section, and
A s c = total area of steel in the section
It is worth mentioning that the quantities Mu x , Mu y and P u are due to external loadings applied on the structure and are available from the analysis
Whereas Mu x , M u y and P u are the capacities of the column section to be considered for the design.
Solution of Problems using IS Code Method
18456: 2000, suggest the following steps to design the columns subjected to load and biaxial moment.
1) Selection of trial section for the design type of problems
The preliminary dimensions are assumed during the analysis of structure Assume the percentage of longitudinal steel from the given Mu x , Mu y, P u, f y and f c k
Note:
Pillai and Menon suggested a simple way of considering a moment of approximately 15 per cent in excess (lower percentage up to 5 per cent if P u/P u z is relatively high) of the resultant moment
Mu = 1.15 x (M u x 2 + M u y 2) .
As the uni axial moment for the trial section with respect to the major principal axis xx, if Mu x≥ Mu y otherwise, it should be with respect to the minor principal axis.
The reinforcement should be assumed to be distributed equally on four sides of the section.
2) Checking the eccentricities ex and ey for the minimum eccentricities
Clause 25.4 of IS256 stipulates the amounts of the minimum eccentricities and are given in Equation s follows,
(M u x /M u x 1)+ (M u y /M u y 1) ≤ 1
P u z= 0.45 f c k Ag + (0.75 f y – 0.45 f c k ) A s c
Where 1, b and D are the unsupported length, least lateral dimension and larger lateral dimension, respectively. The clause further stipulates that for the biaxial bending, it is sufficient to ensure that the eccentricity exceeding the minimum value about one axis at a time.
3) Verification of eccentricities
It is to be done determining ex = Mu x/P u and e y = Mu y/P u from the given data of Mu x, Mu y and P u and Equation above from the assumed b and D and given l eff.
4) Assuming a trial section including longitudinal reinforcement
This step is needed only for the design type of problem, which is to be done as explained in (a) above.
5) Determination of Mux1 and Muy1
Use of design charts should be made for this. Mux1 and Muy1 corresponding to the given P u should be significantly greater than Mu x and Mu y respectively.
6) Determination of P u z and n
The values of P u z and n can be determined from Equations as
P u z= 0.45 f c k Ag + (0.75 f y – 0.45 f c k )
. Alternatively, P u z can be obtained from Chart 63 of SP-16.
7) Checking the adequacy of the section
This is done either using Equation (9.16.1) or using Chart 64 of SP-16.

P u /f c k b D = 120 * 103 /25 * 400 *400 = 0.3
M u /f c k b D2 = 120 * 106 /25 * 400 * 4002 = 0.075
From chart, (refer chart 2 )
P u/ f c k = 0.03
P = 0.03 f c k = 0.03 x 25 = 0.75 %

Size of footing
Assume square footing L = B = = 1.879 = 2 m
Provided size of footing = 2 m x 2 m
Since the column is subjected to eccentricity of 100mm, the C.G. of footing is taken at 100 mm away from the axis column as shown in fig as below,

Provided size of footing = 2 m x 2 m
Upward soil pressure = load on column /size of footing provided
= 1.5 * 900/ 2* 2
= 337.5 KN/m2
Depth for BM
Determine eccentricity = e =M u/P u = 180/ (1.5 * 900) = 0.023 m = 23 mm
a1 = (L-b)/2 + e
= (2- 0.3)/2 + 0.023
= 0.873 m
a1 = (L-b)/2 - e
= (2- 0.3)/2 - 0.023
= 0.827 m
b1 = (B- a)/2
= (2- 0.5)/2
= 0.75 m
BM calculation
For BM calculation takes greater of a1 and a2
M x d = P u cal x a12/2 = upward soil pressure a12/2
= 337.5 x 0.8732 = 128.60 KN .m
My d = P u cal x b12/2 = upward soil pressure b12/2
= 337.5 x 0.752/2 = 95 KN .m
M d= maximum of M x d and My d= 128.60 KN m
For Fe415
Mu.lim = 0.138fck bd2
128.60 x 106= 0.138x 25 x 1000 x d2
d = 193.06 mm
v = should be less than k s c
K s = 0.5 + c = 0.5 +b/ D = 0.5 +300/ 500 = 1.1
c = 0.25 = 0.25 = 1.25 N/mm2
v = 1.1x 1.25 = 1.375 N/mm2
Nominal shear stress v = 1375KN/m2
Vu = 2 [((2- 0.3)/ 2) – d ] x 337.5 ………1
v < k s c
Shear resisted by concrete
Vu = c B d
= 1375 x 2 x d
= 2750 d ……2
From equation 1 and equation 2
2 [ ((2- 0.3)/2 ) – d ] x 337.5 = 2750 d
573.75 – 675d = 2750d
d = 0.168m = 168 mm
Depth is safe against one way shear
Check for two way shear
Shear force on shaded area
Vu = [22 – (0.3 + d ) ( 0.5 +d) ]x 337.5…………Equation 1
Shear force resisted by concrete
Vu = c b0 d
b0 = perimeter of critical section
b0 = 2 [(D + d) + (b + d)]
= 2 [(0.3 + d) + (0.5 + d)]
= 2[0.8 + 2d]
= 1.6 + 4d
Vu = b0 d
= 1375 (1.6 + 4d) d …………………Equation 2
Equating Equation (1) and (2)
[22 – (0.3 + d) (0.5 +d)] x 337.5= 1375 (1.6 + 4d) d
3.85 – 0.8 d – d2= 4.07 (1.6d + 4d2)
15.3 d2 + 7.31 d – 3.85 = 0
d = 0.316 = 0.316 m
= 320 mm
Overall depth = D = d + c + d/2
= 320 + 50 + 16/2
= 378 mm = 390 mm
