Challenge

Reinforcement detailing of Columns from ETABS output

Aim and introduction:

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.

  1. 3A
  2. 3B
  • Provide details of longitudinal reinforcement for the two columns, from foundation to terrace level. Sketch the column cross sectional & elevation details or draft it using autocad software.
  • Show shear reinforcement & lapping details as per special confining reinforcement provision of clause 8.1 of IS 13920 - 2016.

Procedure:

Steps:

  • Go to the Etab software
  • Select the G+4 model

  • Analyse the model
  • Check the model

  • Select Display the design information in that longitudinal reinforcing

  • Shear reinforcing

For Grid 3A:

Longitudinal reinforcement

  • Maximum Ast @ the base to ground =7027mm^2
  • Maximum Ast from ground to the terrace=6926mm^2

Hence we provide #10 no.s 32mm dia from the base to ground

Hence we provide #8 nos of 32mm dia from the ground to the terrace

Shear reinforcement

  • Minimum shear bar 4.99=499mm^2
  • Shear bar calculation=1000/200Xarea of a barX legs=1000/200X50.26X2=502.6mm^2

For Grid 3B:

Longitudinal reinforcement

  • Maximum Ast from base to the terrace=5046mm^2

Hence we provide #8no.s of 28mm dia bars from the base to terrace #6no.s of 28mm dia bars

Shear reinforcement

  • Minimum shear bar 4.99=499mm^2
  • Shear bar calculation=1000/200Xarea of a barX legs=1000/200X50.26X2=502.6mm^2

Results:

Run the analysis and design the RCC Moment Resisting Frame.

  1. 3A
  2. 3B
  • Provided the details of longitudinal reinforcement for the two columns, from foundation to terrace level. Sketching the column cross sectional & elevation details or draft it using autocad software.
  • Shear reinforcement & lapping details as per special confining reinforcement provision of clause 8.1 of IS 13920 - 2016.
