PROBLEM 5.

20

Calculate the ultimate axial load capacity of a rectangular column 350mm x450mm reinforced
with six 25mm bars. Use fy = 345 MPa and f’c = 28 MPa.

PROBLEM 5.21

Design a square tied column to support an axial dead load of 900 KN and an axial live load of
1240 KN. Use fy = 414 and f’c = 27.6 MPa. Assume 2% steel ratio and use 28mm main bars and
10mm ties.
PROBLEM 5.22

Reapeat Problem 5.21 using 5% steel ratio.

PROBEM 5.23

Calculate the ultimate axial load capacity of a 480-mm round spiral column reinforced with six
22mm bars. Use fy = 345 MPa and f’c = 34 MPa.
PROBLEM 5.24

Design a round spiral column to support an axial dead load of 950 KN and an axial live load of
1210 KN. Use fy = 414 MPa and f’c = 21 MPa. Assume 2% steel ratio and use 28mm main bars
and 10mm spiral. Use 30mm steel cover.

PROBLEM 5.25

Repeat PROBLEM 5.24 using 5% steel ratio, 25mm longitudinal bars, and 12mm spiral.
Problem 5.26

The reinforced concrete column shown in Figure 5.36 is reinforced with ten 25-mm bars with fy =
415 MPa. The ties are 12mm in diameter with fyh = 276 MPa. Concrete strength is f’c = 21 MPa.
Clear concrete cover is 35mm. Determine the required spacing of transverse (confinement or
hoop) reinforcement for seismic design for shear (a) parallel to long direction and (b) parallel to
short direction. C) Find also the maximum spacing of confinement reinforcement.
PROBLEM 5.27

Design a square tied column to carry the following loads:

Axial loads: Shear parallel to one side:

Dead Load = 1100 KN Dead load = 120 KN

Live load = 700 KN Live load = 110 KN

Concrete strength f’c = 21 MPa. Use 25-mm-diameter longitudinal bars (fy = 415 MPa) and 12-
mm-diamter ties (fyh = 275 MPa). Clear protective covering is 35mm. Use2% steel ratio. Use
2001 NSCP.
PROBLEM 5.28

Repeat PROBLEM 5.27 using the 2010 NSCP


PROBLEM 5.29

The column in figure 5.37 is reinforced with ten 28-mm bars distributed around the perimeter.
Load Pn will be applied with eccentricity e about the strong axis. Material strengths are f’c = 30
MPa and fy = 415 MPa. The neutral axis c = 380mm from extreme concrete in compression.
Determine the nominal column load and its eccentricity. Find also the ultimate column strength
фPn. Use the 2010 NSCP.
PROBLEM 5.30

Repeat PROBLEM 5.29 using 2001 NSCP.


PROBLEM 5.31

with eight 28-mm-diameter bars. Concrete strength f’c = 21 MPa and steel yield strength fy = 414
MPa.

a) Determine the nominal balanced load and the balanced eccentricity.


b) Find Pn when e = 220mm
c) Find Pn when e = 550mm
d) Find Pn when the stress in tension steel is 180 MPa.
