Reinforcement detailing of Columns from ETABS output

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.

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.

Aim -

To provide the details of longitudinal reinforcement for the two columns ( 3A and 3B) from foundation to terrace level.

The details of shear reinforcement as per special confining reinforcement provision of clause 8.1 of IS 13920 - 2016.

Introduction -

A reinforced concrete column is a structural member designed to carry compressive loads, composed of concrete with an embeded steel frame to

provide reinforcement.

For design purpose the column are sepearted into two categories short column and slender column.

A column s are classified into a short , intermidiate, long depending upon their lengths amd their materials properties length of other columns in

the same structure.

Procedure -

Step 1.

First we have open the challenge 7 page and download the challenge.

After downloading the challenge open it in the etabs.

Step 2.

Next we need to keep the model in the elevation view.

Step 3.

Next we have to start the design by selecting the Start design check option, then we have to wait till the design completes.

Step 4.

When the design completes the details of the longitudinal reinforcement will be visible.

Step 5.

Next we need to select the Display design info option and then select the shear reinforcement in the design output and click on the OK button.

Now the shear reinforcement details will be visible.

Step 6.

Now the shear reinforcement details will be visible.
