Challenge

Reinforcement detailing of Columns from ETABS output

Aim: -

  • un the analysis and design the RCC Moment Resisting Frame of the Given E Tabs file and to Provide details of Longitudinal Reinforcement for the two Columns 3A & 3B for Foundational Level to terrace Level.
  • Sketch the column cross sectional & elevation details or draft it using auto Cad software.
  • Show shear reinforcement & lapping details as per special confining reinforcement provision of clause 8.1 of IS 13920 - 2016.

Introduction: -

  • The Reinforcement Detailing of Columns Consist of Carrying out the Design of two Columns, 3A & 3B for Longitudinal and Shear Reinforcement.
  • For Design purpose the Columns are separated into two Categories Short Columns and long Columns
  • A Short Columns is a Structural Member whose relatively short length Virtually ensures it Will Fall in Compression if it is Evenly Loaded along its axis.
  • Columns Can be as short, Intermediate or long depending on their Lengths, their Material properties and the Lengths of other Columns in the Same Structure
  • Slender Column can be tested in Laboratory to observe the action of buckling or crimpling for Column based on Slenderness Ration it s termed as long or sort column
  • Longitudinal Reinforcement Columns
  • Circular Columns should have a Minimum 6 Bars
  • Rectangular Columns must have a Minimum of 8 bars
  • As per IS 456-2000 the Minimum C/s area of Longitudinal Steel is 0.8% Gross Cross sectional Area of Columns
  • Bars Should not be Less then 122mm in Dia

Procedure: -

  • Open the Etabs File
  • Check out the Model
  • Carry out the Analysis Model
  • Once analysis Complete next we have to carry out the design
  • For this initially go to Concrete Frame Design in the Etabs provided at the top
  • Concrete Frame Design>> Design Preference
  • Concrete Frame Design Combinations
  • Concrete Frame Design >> Start Design Check
  • Concrete Frame Design>> Display Design Info >> Longitudinal Reinforcement
  • Concrete Frame Design>> Display Design Info >> Longitudinal Reinforcement
  • Now We need to draft the Column Reinforcement Details on an Auto Cad
  • The Reinforcement Details for the Column 3A is Given Us
  • Here the Maximum Longitudinal Reinforcement Required is 7027 mm^2
  • Hence Provided 8 Nos of 32mm Día Bars and 2 Nos. of 20mm Día Bars which together Contributes AST of 7060 mm^2
  • Now for shear Reinforcement the maximum Reinforcement Area required is 720 mm^2
  • Hence Provided 10 mm Día bars @ 150mm C/C a Zone A AND A Spacing of 100 mm C/c a zone B which Contributes to an Ast of 1570mm^2 and 2355 mm^2 Resp.
  • The Reinforcement Details for the Column 3B is Given Us
  • Here the Maximum Longitudinal Reinforcement Required is 5046+mm^2
  • Hence Provided 4 Nos of 32mm Día Bars and 6 Nos. of 20mm Día Bars which together Contributes AST of 5100 mm^2
  • Now for shear Reinforcement the maximum Reinforcement Area required is 720 mm^2
  • Hence Provided 10 mm Día bars @ 150mm C/C a Zone A AND A Spacing of 100 mm C/c a zone B which Contributes to an Ast of 1570mm^2 and 2355 mm^2 Resp.

Result:-

  • The Given Etabs Model has been analysed after checking the model
  • The Concrete Frame Design has also been Carried out hence the Reinforcement area required has obtained
  • The Longitudinal reinforcement Details Obtained from the results have been Drafted in Auto Cad 3
  • Similarly the Shear Reinforcement Details also have been Drafted
