Design steps for column section | IS 456: 2000
Have you ever wondered why the columns in your building are so essential? Picture the skeleton of a human body, providing structure, support, and shape. In much the same way,
column design
Design procedure of column with uniaxial bending
A column subjected to uniaxial bending refers to a structural element that experiences bending about a single axis. In other words, the load or forces applied to the column act
Design procedure for column with Biaxial moments
A column is a special case of a compression member that is vertical. A reinforced concrete column is basically a vertical structural member, which helps to transfer the load from
Earthquake considerations for design of column sections
It is very important to consider the effect of earthquake in proportioning of columns and their reinforcement. The design is based on IS: 13920:1993. This code is applicable to members
Fundamental concepts of Column
A column is a special case of a compression member that is vertical. A reinforced concrete column is basically a vertical structural member, which helps to transfer the load from
Difference between Beam and Column
In structural engineering we give names to different structural members based on their behaviour under applied load. Beam and column is also two structural members. Check out this post to
Why do we use minimum eccentricity in column design?
When we design an axially loaded column, it is very important to consider some moments along with the axial load. As in practical scenarios, it is not possible to neglect
What is unsupported length and effective length of a column?
Column is basically a vertical structure, which helps to transfer the load from top to bottom in a framed structure. Specifically columns transfer the compressive load from top floors, ceiling
