Reinforcement detailing of columns in Etabs 2018.
The ETABS file for a G+4 building is provided. Run the analysis and design the RCC Moment Resisting Frame. The following challenge deals specifically with two columns at the following grid intersections.
Aim:- To analyze and extract the area of reinforcement value for column to draw the reinforcement detailings in the auto Cad software for the column.
Introduction:-
Column- A column can be defined as a vertical member which transfers the loads from slab and beams to the foundation,a column can also be defined as a compression member which acts to transfer the axial loads.
Column Reinforcement:- Two kinds of reinforcements are provided in the column one is longitudnal reinforcement while the other is Shear reinforcements.
Procedure:-
As we can see from the etabs result for the area of longitudnal reinforcement the,
Ast max= 7027 mm2,we know that as per the codal provisions the longitunal reinforcement designed for columns has to be designed for the maximum area of renforcement.
So, for Ast=7027,we have to adjust the Ast with the available rebars in the market.
let's provide 10-32T for the longitudnal reinforcement, 10-32T counts for 8038mm2 which is greater than our required Ast ,hence ok.
Formulae for the anchorage length as per IS 13920
Anchorage length=Ld+10db, Where Ld is development length and db is nothing but the diameter of the bar for which we are calculating the anchorage length.
Ld can be calculated as, Ld = φ σst/4τ bd
In the model,section properties arte provided are concrete of M30 grade while steel rebar for longitudnal reinforcement of HYSD415 are provided.
τ bd value from the IS 456:2000 ,we know=1.875 (for the deformed bars in compression)
so,Ld for T-32 rebar,
Ld=((32x415)/(4x1.875))
Ld=1770 mm.
Anchorage length=Ld+10db=1770+32*10=2090mm
From there suggessions we have,
L0 is nothing but a particular distance from the top of the beam or bottom of the beam into the column upto which confined reinforcing is suggested by the codal provisions.
So, L0 is considered to be 650mm
2.Confinement spacing nbot more than,
So, 100 mm is considered.
Note:-As we are getting the same area of shear reinforcement requirement all along the height of the building. It suggests that the shear reinforcement is not required but, IS code has suggested to provide the minimal shear reinfocements in that perspective so,
Cover in the column is considered to be =40mm
and for the anchorage length in the foundation cover considered is=50 mm
As we can see from the etabs result for the area of longitudnal reinforcement the,
Ast max= 5046 mm^2,we know that as per the codal provisions the longitunal reinforcement designed for columns has to be designed for the maximum area of renforcement.
So, for Ast=5046 mm^2,we have to adjust the Ast with the available rebars in the market.
let's provide 8-25T for the longitudnal reinforcement, 2-12T counts for 5132 mm^2 which is greater than our required Ast ,hence ok.

Ld=1770 mm.
Anchorage length=Ld+10db=1770+32*10=2090mm
Similarly, anchorage length of 12 mm rebar=664+10*12=784mm
From there suggessions we have,
L0 is nothing but a particular distance from the top of the beam or bottom of the beam into the column upto which confined reinforcing is suggested by the codal provisions.
