Reinforcement detailing of Columns from ETABS output

AIM: For given G+4 building,following to be obtained:

  • To provide longitudinal reinforcement for the column 3A and 3B,from foundation to terrace level.
  • The details of shear reinforcement & lapping details as per special confining reinforcement provision of clause 8.1 of IS 13920 - 2016.

INTRODUCTION:

  • Columns transfer the loads from beams and slabs to foundation. Columns support high compressive forces in mega structures such as long-span structures and tall buildings.
  • Based on slenderness ratio or height:Short column and Slender column
  • A compression member may be considered as short when both the slenderness ratios namely lex/D and ley/b are less than 1- is short column,otherwise slender column.
  • Columns may fail in one of three mechanisms Compression failure of the concrete or steel reinforcement, Buckling and Combination of buckling and compression failure.
  • In order to avoid the failures,it is provided with speical confiment reinfocement under IS 13920 clause.

PROCEDURE:

  • open the G+4 building file in etabs.
  • keep the model in elevation view as 3rd grid,for better column details.

  • run the analysis.
  • note that for 3rd load combination i.e.,0.9DL+1.5Eq,column 3F is subjected to tension ffrom combination 68-79.
  • once model is locked,concrete frame>start design/check.
  • as a default longtudinal reinforcement deatils will appear.

  • in order to see shear reinforcement details,concrete frame>display design info>select shear reinforcement.

for 3A column,lets take the column 7 with maximum Ast -7027 mm^2.

provide 12#28mm dia bar =7850 mm^2>7389mm^2,hence ok.

provide cross tie bars across longitudinal bars.

provide stirrups of 10mm dia @100 c/c @zone Aand 150 c/c 2@zone C.

as per clause 8.1 in IS 13920-

  • lo is 700mm throughout the column>450mm,hence ok.
  • spacing between the links is 100mm which is the maximum value,hence ok.

for 3B column,lets take column 8 with maximum Ast-5046 mm^2.

lets provide 8# 25mm dia bar and 4#22mm dia bar=3925+1520=5445 mm^2>5054 mm^2.

provide cross tie bars across longitudinal bars.

as per clause 8.1 in IS 13920-

  • lo is 700mm throughout the column>450mm,hence ok.
  • spacing between the links is 100mm which is the maximum value,hence ok.

RESULT:

  • The longitudinal reinforcement for two column is drafted.
  • The shear reinforcement & lapping details as per special confining reinforcement provision of clause 8.1 of IS 13920 - 2016 is shown.
