Reinforcement detailing of Columns from ETABS output

Introduction:

• Column is a Structural vertical member which basically carries compressive loads
• Columns are primarily intended to resist the longitudinal compressive forces
• Columns are classified as short, intermediate or long depending on their lengths, their material or there type

Process to be followed:

Step-01

• First we have to open the challange 7page and download the challenge
• Then that needs to be open in etabs 2018

Step-02

• Next we need to keep the model in the elevation view
• And needs do look for design check in longitudinal reinforcement

• Next we have to look for design check for shear reinforce

Step-03

• Here for column-7 (3A intersection), we take size of column as 450X650mm
• The maximum Ast for the column-7 is 7027mm2
• We provide 16bars of 18mm dia (16-18mm dia)
• Also the stirups as 10mm for zone A with the spacing of 100mm and 150mm spacing for Zone C

Step-04:

• Next for the column-8 (3B intersection) we take the size of the column as 450X 650mm
• The maximum Ast for the columns-8 is 5046mm2
• So, we provide 16 bars of 20mm dia (16-20mm dia)
• Also the striups of 10mm for Zone A with 100mm c/c spacing and 150mm c/c spacing for Zone C

Result:

• Provided the details for longitudinal or main bars as well as the striups for both(3A-B) from base foundation level to roof terrace level
• Also provided the required shear force reinforcement details
• Included the column cross-section & elevation details Using CAD drawings
