The document describes a student project that aims to prepare design aids in the form of interaction curves for column design. The design aids in SP-16 only provide 12 charts each for rectangular and circular column sections, with d'/D ratios in intervals of 0.05. However, in practice d'/D varies from 0.035 to 0.25. The project will prepare 57 charts each for the column sections, with d'/D ratios in intervals of 0.01, to minimize approximation errors. This will result in preparing a total of 2394 interaction curves covering different grades of steel and p/fck ratios, to aid in more accurate column design and analysis.

Book for Beginners, RCC Design by ETABSYousuf Dinar
Advancement of softwares is main cause behind comparatively quick and simple
design while avoiding complexity and time consuming manual procedure. However
mistake or mislead could be happened during designing the structures because of not
knowing the proper procedure depending on the situation. Design book based on
manual or hand design is sometimes time consuming and could not be good aids with
softwares as several steps are shorten during finite element modeling. This book may
work as a general learning hand book which bridges the software and the manual
design properly. The writers of this book used linear static analysis under BNBC and
ACI code to generate a six story residential building which could withstand wind load
of 210 kmph and seismic event of that region. The building is assumed to be designed
in Dhaka, Bangladesh under RAJUK rules to get legality of that concern organization.
For easy and explained understanding the book chapters are oriented in 2 parts. Part A
is concern about modeling and analysis which completed in only one chapter. Part B
is organized with 8 chapters. From chapter 1 to 7 the writers designed the model
building and explained with references how to consider during design so that
creativity of readers could not be threated. Chapter 8 is dedicated for estimation. As a
whole the book will help the readers to experience a building construction related all
facts and how to progress in design. Although the volume I is limited to linear static
analysis, upcoming volume will eventually consider dynamic facts to perform
dynamic analysis. Implemented equations are organized in the appendix section for
easy memorizing.
BNBC and other codes are improving and expending day by day, by covering new
and improved information as civil engineering is a vast field to continue the research.
Before designing something or taking decision judge the contemporary codes and
choose data, equations, factors and coefficient from the updated one.

The document describes the design and analysis of a shock absorber using finite element analysis (FEA). A shock absorber model was created in Pro/ENGINEER and structural and modal analyses were performed in ANSYS. Two materials, spring steel and phosphor bronze, were considered for the spring. The structural analysis showed that both designs were safe and had stresses less than yield stresses. However, the spring steel design had lower deformation, higher stiffness, and higher natural frequencies, indicating it is the better material choice for the spring.

This document provides design aids for reinforced concrete based on Indian Standard IS: 456-1978 Code of Practice for Plain and Reinforced Concrete. It contains charts and tables to help designers calculate flexural strength of beams, compressive strength of columns, shear strength, development length, deflection, and other parameters for reinforced concrete members. The design aids are presented in SI units and are intended to supplement an explanatory handbook on IS: 456-1978 by reducing design time. Assumptions made in developing the aids and an example problem are included to illustrate their use.
This document provides information about the design of short columns under axial load with uniaxial bending using design charts from SP-16. It discusses:
- The types of problems that can be solved using the SP-16 charts (analysis and design)
- The three sets of charts in SP-16 specifying their parameters
- The approximations and limitations of using the SP-16 charts
- The steps for solving analysis and design type problems using the charts
- Two example problems demonstrating the use of the charts to solve column design issues
This document provides an overview of using design charts from SP-16 to analyze and design short columns under axial load with uniaxial bending. It discusses the three sets of design charts in SP-16 for rectangular and circular columns, including their parameters and limitations. It then outlines the steps for using the charts to solve both analysis problems, where column strength is checked, and design problems, where the percentage of longitudinal steel is determined. The design charts provide a quicker way to evaluate columns compared to direct calculations, though some approximations must be made.
Analysis of different types of braces and chord connection in (CFST) k -joint...IRJET Journal
This document analyzes different types of braces and chord connections in concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) k-joints under various boundary conditions using finite element analysis. It validates an FEA model of a bolted CFST k-joint connection against experimental test data. The study then investigates the performance of different brace shapes, brace angles, and gap distances between braces in CFST k-joints. It finds that k-joints with circular braces and an angle of 70 degrees, and k-joints with rectangular braces and an angle of 90 degrees experience the highest equivalent stresses. K-joints with pentagonal braces also perform best at a 70 degree brace angle.
Buckling of slender composite concrete filled steel columnsRadhwan Faraj
This document summarizes research analyzing test data on 1817 composite concrete-filled steel columns. The test results are compared to calculations according to Eurocode 4 design methods. Several key findings are presented:
1) Test results for circular composite columns generally corresponded well with Eurocode 4 calculations. Test capacities of rectangular columns agreed with calculations when concrete strength was below 75 MPa.
2) Preloading composite members did not influence load-bearing capacity.
3) Analysis of stress distributions, preloading effects, and stress-strain curves was also examined.
4) Test/calculation ratios from the data indicate Eurocode 4 methods are generally conservative, with average ratios above 1.0 for different column types.

4. ABSTRACT
This project aims at preparing the interaction curves for designing and analysis of
columns which will help in filling the gaps of Design Handbook SP-16. The Design
Handbook SP-16 provides design aids for columns in the form of non-dimensional
interaction curves. The design aids cover the following three cases of symmetrically
arranged reinforcement:
1. Rectangular sections with reinforcement distributed equally on two sides
(Charts 27-38).
2. Rectangular sections with reinforcement distribute equally on four sides
(Charts 39-50).
3. Circular column sections (Charts 51-62).
Corresponding to each of the above three cases, there are only 12 charts available for
each case covering the three grades of steel (Fe 250, Fe 415, Fe 500), with four
values of d’/D ratio for each grade (i.e. 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20). Each of the 36 charts
cover a family of non-dimensional design interaction curves with p/fck values ranging
from 0 to 0.26 i.e., each chart comprises of 14 curves.
In actual practice, d’/D value varies from 0.035 to 0.25(approximately).For the
purpose of designing and analysis, the value of d’/D is approximated to the nearest
value specified in the design charts which creates approximation errors.
To fill the gaps in design aids and hence minimizing the approximation errors, 57
charts are prepared for each of the three cases of reinforcement covering the three
grades of steel (Fe 250, Fe 415, Fe 500), with nineteen values of d’/D ratio for each
grade (i.e. 0.03, 0.04, 0.06, 0.07, 0.08, 0.09, 0.11, 0.12, 0.13, 0.14, 0.16, 0.17, 0.18,
0.19, 0.21, 0.22, 0.23, 0.24, 0.25). Each of the charts will comprise of 14 curves for
14 values of p/fck
.
Altogether the project aims at preparing 2394 interaction curves for
designing and analysis of columns.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview:
This project aims at preparing non-dimensional interaction curves (design charts) for
rectangular and circular sections of columns. The Design handbook SP: 16 already
provides design charts for three cases of reinforcement arrangement in column which
helps in easy and fast design and analysis of columns. The three cases of reinforcement
are:
a) Rectangular sections with reinforcement distributed equally on two sides
b) Rectangular sections with reinforcement distribute equally on four sides
c) Circular column sections
For each of the above three cases, there areonly 12 charts available covering the three
grades of steel (Fe 250, Fe 415, Fe 500), with four values of d’/D ratio for each grade
(i.e. 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20). But in real practice the value of d’/D varies from 0.035 to
0.25(approximately).

For intermediate values of d’/D approximation or linear interpolation has to be done
which creates error in the results.
To minimize this error, design charts for the intermediate values of d’/D are prepared by
keeping an interval of 0.01.
1.2 Objective:
To prepare non-dimensional interaction curves for rectangular and circular sections of
columns.
8. 1.3 Features:
1.3.1 Application:
a) The design charts are useful in simplified and fast designing and analysis
of column.
b) The design charts gives additional information about the type of failure of
the column section.
1.3.2 Advantage:
a) The design charts gives a simplified approach of design and analysis of
column.
b) By preparing design charts for the intermediate values of d’/D, the
approximation error is reduced in design and analysis procedures and
more accurate results are obtained.

LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 TITLE:Design Aids for Reinforced Concrete to IS 456:1978(SP 16)
PUBLISHED IN:Bureau of Indian Standards
Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg,
New Delhi- 110 002
2.1.1 Abstraction:
Design Aids is an explanatory handbook toIS: 456-1978 Code of practice for Plain
and Reinforced Concrete (Third Edition). It covers the basis/source of each clause,
the interpretation of the clause and worked out examples to illustrate the application
of the clauses. The objective of this design aids is to reduce design time in the use of
certain clauses in the Code for the design of beams, slabs and columns in general
building structures.
2.1.2 Overview:
2.1.2.1 Features:
The design aids cover the following:
a) Material Strength and Stress-Strain Relationships
b) Flexural members (Limit State Design)
c) Compression Members (Limit State Design)
d) Shear and torsion(Limit State Design)
e) Development Length and Anchorage(Limit State Design)
f) Working Stress Method
g) Deflection Calculation
h) General Tables
The format of this design aids is as follows:
a) Assumption regarding the material strength
b) Explanation of the basis of preparation of individual sets of design aids as related
to the appropriate clauses in the code
c) Worked example illustrating the use of design aids
Some important points to be noted in the use of design aids are:
a) The design units are entirely in SI units as per the provisions of IS : 456-1978
b) Notations as per IS : 456-1978 are maintained here as far a possible
c) Both charts and tables are given for flexural members. The charts can be used
conveniently for preliminary design where greater accuracy is required, the tables
may be used
d) Design of column is based on uniform distribution of steel on two faces or on four
faces
10. e) Charts and tables for flexural members do not take into consideration crack
control and are meant for strength calculations only. Detailing rules given in the
code should be followed for crack control
f) If the steel being used in the design has a strength which is slightly different from
the one used in the charts and tables, the chart or table for the nearest value may
be used and areaof reinforcement thus obtained modified in proportion to the ratio
of the strength of steels
2.1.2.2 Inference:
The Design Handbook SP: 16 provides non-dimensional interaction curves (design
charts) for design and analysis of columns. The interaction curves is obtained by
plotting various combinations of axial force and moment capacity of section
determined for different positions of neutral axis. It provides additional information
about the type of failure occurring in the section of columns. Any combination of
axial load and moment falling within the interaction curve is safe combination.
Fig. 2.1 Pu – Mu interaction curve
The ‘interaction curve’ is a complete graphical representation of the design strength
of a uniaxially eccentrically loaded column of any proportion. Each point on the
curve corresponds to the design strength values of Pur and Mur associated with
specific eccentricity (e) of loading.
As the use of interaction curve (Fig. 2.1) is limited to the chosen dimensions of the
section and the area of reinforcement, therefore it has been modified by expressing
Pu and Mu in non-dimensional form as Pu/(fckbD) and Mu/(fckbD2
) respectively and
plotting curves for various values of p/fck so that it can be used for any dimensions
of column section, area of reinforcement and values of fck.
11. The design charts (non-dimensional interaction curves) given in the Design
HandbookSP: 16, cover the following three cases of symmetrically arranged
reinforcement:
a) Rectangular sections with reinforcement distributed equally on two sides
(Charts 27-38): the ‘two sides’ refer to the sides parallel to the axis of
bending; there are no inner rows of bars, and each outer row has an area of
0.5As(figure 2.2); As being the total area of steel
b) Rectangular sections with reinforcement distribute equally on four sides
(Charts 39-50): Two outer rows (with area 0.3As each) and four inner rows
(with area 0.1As each) has been considered in the calculations. However the
use of these charts can be extended without significant error, to cases of not
less than two inner rows (with a minimum area of 0.3Asin each outer row), as
shown in figure 2.3.
c) Circular column sections (Charts 51-62): the charts are applicable for circular
sections with at least six bars (of equal diameter) uniformly spaced
circumferentially, as shown in the figure 2.4.
Corresponding to each of the above three cases, there are 12 charts available for
each case covering the three grades of steel (Fe 250, Fe 415, Fe 500), with four
values of d’/D ratio for each grade (i.e. 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20). For intermediate
values of d’/D, linear interpolation may be done. Each of the 36 charts cover a
family of non-dimensional design interaction curves with p/fck values ranging
from 0 to 0.26 i.e., each chart comprises of 14 curves.

rectangular and circular sections of column as adopted in design handbook SP-16 of
Indian Standard Publications. It is obtained for particular value of d’/D and fy.
Fig 2.5 Interaction curve for rectangular section with reinforcement
equally distributed on two opposite faces
13. Fig 2.6 Interaction curve for rectangular section with reinforcement
equally distributed on four faces
14. Fig 2.7 Interaction curve for circular section
The design of column section with the use of such interaction curve is simple. The
cross-sectional dimension, distribution of reinforcement and its effective cover is
fixed.Then the values of Pu/(fckbD) and Mu/(fckbD2
) are plotted as ‘p’ and ‘m’
respectively. The intersection of horizontal and vertical lines from ‘p’ and ‘m’
respectively at point ‘s’ gives the value of p/fck. Thus, the value of p i.e., percentage
of reinforcement, is obtained.

2.2.1 Abstraction:
The primary objective of this book is to furnish a basic understanding of materials for
reinforced concrete, and the behaviour an design of basic reinforced concrete
structural elements. Emphasis has been laid on limit-state method of design in
accordance with the latest Indian code and design practice.
2.2.2 Overview:
2.2.2.1 Features:
This book covers the following topics:
a) Properties of concrete and reinforcement.
b) Basic philosophy of design highlighting working stress, ultimate strength and
limit state methods of design.
c) Analysis and design of beam sections with use of design curves for rectangular
and T-sections.
d) The behaviour and design of beam under shear, torsion and bond.
e) Servicebility limit state design consisderations.
f) Design of beam elements and reinforcement detailing intergrating all the design
aspects.
g) Design of one-way, two-way and fat slabs.
h) The design of columns.
i) Design of staircase
j) Design of retaining walls
k) Design of Foundations.
2.2.2.2 Inference:
This book describes about the behaviour of column under load, design approach for
column section using Limit State Method. It provides the procedure to design
columns using Design Handbook SP: 16.
This book also provides assumptions for design of columns. Following are the basic
assumptions made in the limit state design method:
16. a) The plane section normal to the axis of the column before deformations remains
plane after deformation i.e., the strain at any point is proportional to its distance
from the neutral axis
b) The tensile strength of concrete is ignored
c) The failure of concrete is governed by the maximum strain criteria. For member
under concentric load, the ultimate strain in concrete is taken as 0.002. The
ultimate strain in concrete in bending is taken as 0.0035. For the entire section in
compression under axial load and moment, the transition of strain from 0.002 for
pure axial load condition to 0.0035 for pure bending governs the failure of the
column section as shown in the figure 2.8. The strain distribution line passes
through the point of intersection F of strain distribution lines of two extreme
conditions of uniform strain of 0.002 for purely axial load case and when strain at
the least compressed edge is 0 and strain at the highly compressed edge is 0.0035
for the neutral axis lying at the edge of the least compressed edge. Thus, the
maximum strain at the most compressed edge of the section shall be taken as
0.0035 minus 0.75 times the strain in the least compressed edge of the section as
shown in figure 2.8.
Fig. 2.8 Limiting strain diagram for column section
d) The design stress-strain curve of concrete is shown in Fig.2.9. Compressive
strength of concrete in the structure is assumed to be 0.67 times the characteristic
strength of concrete. The partial factor of safety γmequal to 1.5 is applied to the
strength of concrete in addition to it. Therefore, the design strength of concrete is
0.67fck/1.5, i.e., 0.446fck.The equation for the parabolic part of the curve is given
by,
fcc= 446 fck(ec-250(ec)2
)
The short term static modulus of elasticity of concrete is given by,
Ec = 5000(fck)½
e) The design stress-strain curves for mild and cold worked deformed bars as shown
in the figure 2.10 and fig. 2.11 respectively. The partial factor of safety, γm to the
17. strength of steel is taken as 1.15. Therefore, the strength is fy/1.15, i.e., 0.87 fy.
For mild steel, the design stress-strain curve is linear up to a stress of 0.87fy and
thereafter, the strain increase at a constant stress. For cold-worked deformed bars,
the design stress-strain curve is linear up to a stress of 0.8 × 0.87fy = 0.696fy and
thereafter it is non-linear up to a stress of 0.87fy at a strain of 0.002 + 0.87fy/Es.
The value of design stress and the corresponding value of inelastic strain at some
typical points have been shown in table 2.1. It also gives the values of total strain
and design stress for steel of grade Fe 415 and Fe 500.

Table 2.1 Salient Points on Design Stress-strain Curve of Cold Worked Deformed Steel
It lays down the steps to determine the axial load and moment capacity for a section
of column subjected to combined axial load and uniaxial moment. The computation
of axial load and moment capacity of the sectionfor an assumed position of neutral
axis can be made by establishing the strain profile based on the failure criteria of
column section. Figure 12 (a) and (b) shows the position of neutral axis outside and
within the section and the corresponding strain profiles respectively. The stress
diagrams for concrete and steel can be detremined from their design stress-strain
curves as shown in the figure.
For neutral axis lying outside the section, the axial load capacity can be determined as
follows.
Pu = Cc + Cs
19. The moment capacity of the section can be determined by taking the moment of forces
about the centre of the section as follows:
Mu = Cc (0.5D – yc) + ∑ Csi ysi
where Cc = compressive force in concrete
Cs = compressive force in steel
yc = distance of centroid of compressive force in concrete from the
most compressed edge of the section
ysi = distance of reinforcement I from the centre of the section
Thus, interaction curves can be plotted by between various combination of axial force
and moment capacity of section determined for different positions of neutral axis.

2.3.2.2 Inference:
This book describes the behavior and design of short compression members subject
to axial compression combined with uniaxial bending, i.e., bending with respect to
either the major axis or minor axis (but not both).This book describes and illustrate
21. the distribution of strains at Ultimate Limit State. It also describes the types of
failure in eccentric compression of columns and gives salient points on the
interaction curve.
Strain Distribution at Ultimate Limit State:
A special limiting case of uniaxial eccentric compression is the condition of zero
eccentricity (e = 0, i.e., Mu = 0) which corresponds to the axial loading condition.
Corresponding to this condition, the strain across the column section is uniform and
limited to εcu = 0.002 at the limit state of collapse in compression (as per the Code).
The other limiting case of uniaxial eccentric compression corresponds to infinite
eccentricity (e = ∞, i.e., Pu = 0), which is equivalent to a condition of ‘pure’ flexure.
Corresponding to this condition, the strains are linearly distributed across the
section with a ‘neutral axis’ (NA) located somewhere within the section, and with
tensile strains on one side of the NA and compressive strains on the other side.
Under ultimate load conditions, i.e., at the limit state of collapse in flexure, the
strain in the highly compressed edge of the column is specified by the Code as εcu =
0.0035.
Fig. 2.13 Possible strain profiles under ultimate limit state in eccentric
compression
22. In the general case of uniaxial eccentric compression (Mu ≠ 0, Pu ≠ 0), it follows
that 0 ≤ e ≤ ∞, and for such a condition, the strain profile is non-uniform and
assumed to be linearly varying across the section, with the maximum strain in the
highly compressed edge, εcu, having a value between 0.002 and 0.0035 at the
ultimate limit state. This is depicted in the Figure 2.14.
The Code (Cl. 39.1) permits εcu = 0.0035 to be considered in cases where the
loading eccentricity (i.e., Mu/Pu) is sufficiently high as to induce some tensile strain
in the column section, i.e., xu ≤ D. the limiting condition for this occurs when the
resulting neutral axis coincides with the edge farthest removed from the highly
compressed edge, i.e., xu = D, corresponding to which e = exu = D ≡ eD, as indicated
in Figure 2.13.
When the loading eccentricity is relatively low, such that the entire section is
subjected to (non-uniform) compression and the NA lies outside the section (xu>
D), the Code (Cl. 39.1b) limits the strain in the highly compressed edge to a value
between 0.002 and 0.0035 as follows:
εcu = 0.0035 – 0.75 εc, min for xu ≥ D
Where εc,min is the strain in the least compression edge, as shown Fig. 2.13. It can
be seen that the above satisfies the limiting strain conditions εcu = 0.0035
(corresponding to εc, min = 0; i.e., xu = D or e = ed) and εcu = 0.002 (corresponding to
εc, min = 0.002; i.e., xu = ∞ or e = 0). The point of intersection of these two limiting
strain profiles (corresponding to e = 0 and e = eD) occurs at a distance of 3D/7 from
the ‘highly compressed edge’, and in fact5, this point acts like a ‘pivot’ for strain
profiles when xu ≥ D. it serves as a common point through which all strain profiles
(with xu ≥ D) pass, as indicated in Fig. 2.13.
Modes of Failure in Eccentric Compression:
The mode of failure depends on the eccentricity of loading; i.e., the
relative magnitudes of Pu and Mu. If the eccentricity e = Mu/Pu is relatively small,
the axial compression behavior predominates, and the consequent failure, is
termed compression failure. On the other hand, if the eccentricity is relatively
large, the flexure behavior predominates, and the consequent failure is termed
tension failure. In fact, depending on the exact magnitude of the loading
eccentricity e, it is possible to predict whether a ‘compression failure’ or ‘tension
failure’ will take place.
Balanced Failure: In between ‘compression failure’ and ‘tension failure’, there
exists a critical failure condition, termed ‘balanced failure’. This failure condition
refers to that ultimate limit state wherein the yielding of the outermost row of
longitudinal steel on the tension side and the attainment of the maximum
compressive strain in concrete εcu = 0.0035 at the highly compressed edge of the
23. column occur simultaneously. In other words, both crushing of concrete (in the
highly compressed edge) and yielding of steel (in the outermost tension steel)
occur simultaneously.
Compression Failure: When the loading eccentricity is less than that
corresponding to the ‘balanced failure’ condition, i.e., when e <eb, ‘yielding’ of
longitudinal steel in tension does not take place, and failure occurs at the ultimate
limit state by crushing of concrete at the highly compressed edge. The
compression reinforcement may or may not yield, depending on the grade of steel
and its proximity to the highly compressed edge.
Tension Failure: When the loading eccentricity is greater than that
corresponding to the ‘balanced failure’ condition, i.e., when e >eb, failure will be
initiated by the yielding of the tension steel. The outermost longitudinal bars in
the tension side of the neutral axis first undergo yielding and successive inner
rows (if provided), on the tension side of the neutral axis, may also yield in
tension with increasing strain. Eventually, collapse occurs when the concrete at
the highly compressed edge gets crushed.
Salient Points on the Interaction Curves:
The salient points, marked 1 to 5 on the interaction curve (Fig. 2.14) correspond
to the failure strain profiles, marked 1 to 5 in Fig. 2.14:
a) The point 1 in Fig. 2.14 corresponds to the condition of axial loading with
e = 0. For this case of ‘pure’ axial compression, Mur = 0 and Pur is denoted
as Pu0
b) The point 1’ in Fig. 2.14 corresponds to the condition of axial loading
with the mandatory minimum eccentricity emin [prescribed by the Code
(Cl. 25.4 and 39.3)]. The corresponding ultimate resistance is
approximately given by Pu0
c) The point 3 Fig. 2.14 corresponds to the condition xu = D, i.e., e = eD, the
entire section is under compression and the neutral axis is located outside
the section (xu > D), with 0.002 < εcu< 0.0035. For e > eD, the NA is
located within the section (xu< D) and εcu = 0.00035 at the ‘highly
compressed edge’.
Point 2 represents a genera case, with the neutral axis outside the section
(e < eD).
d) The point 4 in Fig. 2.14 corresponds to the balanced failure condition,
with e = eb and xu = xu, b. The design strength values for this ‘balanced
failure’ condition are denoted as Pub and Mub. For Pur< Pub (i.e., e >eb), the
mode of failure is called tension failure. It may be noted that Mub is close
to the maximum value of ultimate moment of resistance that the given
section is capable of, and this value is higher than the ultimate moment
resisting capacity Mu0 under ‘pure’ flexure conditions.
24. e) The point 5 in Fig. 2.14 corresponds to a ‘pure’ bending condition (e = ∞,
Pur = 0); the resulting ultimate moment of resistance is denoted Mu0 and
the corresponding NA depth takes on a minimum value xu,min.

2.4.2.2 Inference
This book emphasis on the behaviour of columns subjected to axial compression
and uniaxial bending. The behaviour of column depends upon the amount of
eccentricity or the magnitutde of bending moment in relation to the axial load.
The load on column is rarely axial. There is always some minimum inherent
eccentricity on account of nonhomogeneity in loading and construction, lateral
deflection of column etc. Besides, many times, column is subjected to end
moments on account of monolithic connections of beams and columns. In such
case, the column is subjected to combined action of axial load Pu and bending
26. moment Mu. This loading system can be reduced to a single resultant load Pu
acting at an eccentricity e = Mu/Pu.
This book provides the methods for analysis and design of columns under axial
compression and uniaxial bending: Trial and Error method and Design Aids
Method.
TRIAL AND ERROR METHOD:
The design of column section for axial load and uni-axial moment can be made by
preassigning the section and then checking its adequacy. The adequacy of the
section may be checked by assuming the position of neutral axis. Then the strain
profile can be established based on the failure criteria of column section and the
corresponding stress profiles for concrete and steel can be determined from their
stress-strain curves. The axial force and moment capacity of section can be
computed which should satisfy the requirement that the internal axial force is
acting at the same eccentricity at that of the external load. If it is not satisfied,
then the assumed position of neutral axis is not correct and it is altered and the
method is repeated till the resultant internal force act at the same eccentricity as
that of the external load. The section is considered safe if the external load is
within its ultimate load capacity.
Procedure of analysis:
The values of Pu and Mu depends on xu and ku, which are unknown in the
beginning, the analysis procedure is always, therefore, of trial and error. Now
since, the equations for neutral axis lying outside the section ( xu> D or ku> 1) are
different from those for neutral axis lying inside the section( xu< D or ku< 1), one
does not know in the beginning from which equations one should start with. For
this, the following procedure may prove to be useful:
a) Assume xu = D (i.e., ku = 1) or N.A. lying on the edge opposite to the load.
b) Obtain Pu1 and Mu1using equations:
a. Pu1 = 0.36 kufckbD + ∑ Asi (fsi - fci)
b. Mu1 = 0.36kufckbD2
(0.5 – 0.416ku) + ∑ Asi(fsi – fci)xi
c) Compare Pu1 with given Pu when Pu is given.
a. If given Pu<Pu1, actual xu < D
b. If given Pu>Pu1, actual xu > D
Or compare Mu1with given Mu when Mu is given,
a. If given Mu<Mu1, actual xu > D
b. If given Mu>Mu1, actual xu < D
d) Carry out the second trial with revised value of xu judging the difference
between given Pu and Pu1 or that between given Mu and Mu1. Obtain now
Pu2and Mu2 using appropriate equations.
e) Compare the values Pu2 or Mu2 of the second trial with the corresponding
given values. If the given values tallies with the calculated value, it
27. indicates that this trial gives correct position of neutral axis and the values
of Pu and Mu corresponding to this value of xu gives the correct the Pu –
Mu combination. Having known the correct combination, required Mu
corresponding to given Pu or required Pu corresponding to given Mu is
obtained.
Analysis of a given section from first principles is very laborious and time
consuming.
DESIGN AIDS METHOD:
The analysis of eccentrically loaded columns from basic principle is laborious and
time consuming. Therefore, Design Aids, in the form of charts and tables, are
prepared for practical design. The charts consist of interaction diagrams for Pu
and Mu in non-dimensional form.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE SYSTEM
3.1 Methodology:
This section addresses the progress plan of this project. For the construction of
interaction diagrams, it is mandatory to understand the procedure to be followed.
The analysis of few selected sections (rectangular and circular section) of column
was done following the said procedure. The validation of the procedure was done
by co-relating the results of the analysis with the existing interaction diagrams
provided in Design Aids SP-16. The validated procedure was used as a base for
making the Algorithm (Flowchart), which was then used to write the computer
programs using MATLAB software.

30. 3.2 Concept:
The design of columns is complex since it is subjected to axial load and moments
which may vary independently. Its design requires determination of the cross-
sectional dimensions, the area of longitudinal steel and its distribution and
transverse steel. The cross-sectional dimensions and area of longitudinal steel and
its distribution are governed by the axial load and moments acting on the section.
The maximum axial load and moments acting along the length of the column are
considered for the design of the design of the column section either by the
working stress method or by the limit state method
The transverse reinforcement is provided to impart effective lateral
support against buckling to every longitudinal bar. It is either in the form of
circular rings or polygonal links (lateral ties) with internal angles not exceeding
135º. Its design considerations are semi-empirical in nature and are as important
as the theoretical considerations for determining column section and longitudinal
reinforcement.
The working stress method of design column is based on the behaviour of
the structure at working load ensuring that the stresses in concrete and steel do
not exceed their allowable values. It is assumed to possess adequate safety against
collapse. The limit state method of design of column is based on the behaviour of
structure at collapse ensuring adequate margin of safety. The serviceability limits
of deflections and cracks are assumed to be satisfied as the column being
primarily a compression member has very small deflection and cracks.
The working stress method of design is not covered in this section, not
only because of the fact that it has become obsolete, but also because the Code
(Cl. B 4.3) makes it mandatory that designs for eccentric compression by WSM,
based on ‘cracked section’ analysis should be further checked for their strength
under ultimate load conditions to ensure the desired margin of safety. This
condition effectively makes WSM redundant, as it suffices to design in
accordance with LSM.
The behaviour and strength of a R. C. member under axial compression at
collapse is based on the basic assumptions made in the limit state design method.
These assumptions are already stated under Section 2.2.2.2.
The design of columns subjected to concentric axial load and uniaxial
moment or axial load and biaxial moments are described below:
3.2.1 Sections subjected to concentric axial load:
Ultimate load capacity of column with lateral ties is attained when it develops a
limiting strain of 0.002 resulting in the uniform stress of 0.446 fck in concrete. The
stresses induced in mild and high strength deformed bars corresponding to strain
of 0.002 are 0.87 fy and 0.75 fy respectively.
31. Therefore, the ultimate concentric load capacity is determined as follows.
Puz = 0.446 fck Ac + 0.87 fy As for mild steel
= 0.446 fck Ac + 0.75 fy As for high strength deformed bars
Where Ac = the area of concrete
As = the area of steel
It is very rare that the column is subjected to truly concentric load. Therefore, all
compression members are designed for a minimum eccentricity of load in two
principal directional.

+
𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛

≥ 20 mm
where the unsupported length of a compression member shall be taken as
the clear distance between the end restraints.
When the minimum eccentricity does not exceed 0.05 times the lateral
dimension, the axial load carrying capacity is reduced by 11%. Then the axial
load capacity is given by the following equations.
Pu = 0.4 fck Ac + 0.77 fy As for mild steel
= 0.4 fck Ac + 0.67 fy As for high strength deformed bars
The ultimate load-carrying capacity of columns having longitudinal bars
tied with spirals can be taken as 1.05 times the ultimate load for similar members
with lateral ties, provided the ratio of volume of helical reinforcement to the
volume of core is not less than 0.36 (Ag /Ac – 1.0) fck /fy where,
Ag = the gross area of section
Ac = the area of the core of the helically reinforced column measured to
the outside diameter of the helix
fck = the characteristic compressive strength of concrete
fy = the characteristic strength of the helical reinforcement but not
exceeding 415 N/mm2
3.2.1 Section subjected to combined axial load and uniaxial moment:
The design of column section for axial load and uni-axial moment can be made
by preassigning the section and then checking its adequacy as stated in section
2.4.2.2 under Trial and Error method.
32. The computation of axial load and moment capacity of the section for an
assumed position of neutral axis can be made by establish the strain profile based
on the failure criteria of column section. Figure 3.1 (a) and (b) shows the position
of neutral axis outside and within the section and the corresponding strain profiles
respectively. The stress diagrams for concrete and steel can be determined from
their design stress-strain curves as shown in the figure.
Fig. 3.1 Section under combined axial load and uni-axial moment
For neutral axis lying outside the section (Fig. 3.1 (a)), the axial load
capacity can be determined as follows.
Pu = Cc + Cs
The moment capacity of the section can be determined by taking the
moment of forces about the centre of the section as follows.

For neutral axis lying within the section (Fig. 3.1 (b)), the axis load
capacity be determined as follows:
𝑃𝑢 = 𝐶𝑐 + 𝐶𝑠 − 𝑇𝑠
The moment capacity of the section can be determined by taking the
moment of forces about the centre of the section as follows:

= 0.446𝑓𝑐𝑘 𝐵𝑥 𝑢(0.5𝐷 − 𝑦𝑐) + ∑ 𝐴 𝑠𝑐𝑖(𝑓𝑠𝑐𝑖 − 𝑓𝑐𝑐𝑖)𝑦𝑠𝑐𝑖 + ∑ 𝐴 𝑠𝑡𝑖 𝑓𝑠𝑡𝑖 𝑦𝑠𝑡𝑖
where 𝐶𝑐 = compressive force in concrete

∴ 𝑃𝑢 = 0.36𝑓𝑐𝑘 𝐵𝑥 𝑢 + ∑ 𝐴 𝑠𝑐𝑖(𝑓𝑠𝑐𝑖 − 𝑓𝑐𝑐𝑖) − ∑ 𝐴 𝑠𝑡𝑖 𝑓𝑠𝑡𝑖

3.3 Construction of Interaction Diagrams:
Design charts for combined axial compression and bending are given in the form of
interaction diagrams in which curves for 𝑃𝑢/𝑏𝐷𝑓𝑐𝑘 versus 𝑀 𝑢/𝑏𝐷2
𝑓𝑐𝑘 are plotted for
different values of 𝑝 𝑓𝑐𝑘⁄ , where 𝑝 is the reinforcement percentage.
When bending moments are acting in addition to axial load, the points for plotting
the Charts are obtained by assuming different positions of neutral axis. For each
position of neutral axis, the strain and stress distribution is determined. The stresses
in the reinforcement are calculated from the known strains. Thereafter the resultant
axial force and the moment about the centroid of the section are calculated as
follows.

3.3.1 Block diagram:
Assume k (position of N.A.)
Determine Strain distribution (eq. 3.6)
Determine Stress distribution (for concrete use eq. 3.5 and for steel use
stress strain curve (refer fig. 2.11))
Determine stresses in each row of reinforcement corresponding the
strain(use stress strain curve (refer fig. 2.11))
Calculate the resultant axial force (Pu) and moment capacity (Mu) (use eq.
3.1 and eq.3.2)
