3 Design of Steining
a Vertical bond bars
Total steel required is 0.20% of gross cross-sectional area = 0.2*(p/4)(9.32-8.02)/100
(as per clause 708.3.5 of IRC-78:2000) = 35328 mm2
Steel required on inner face is 0.06% of c/s area = 0.06*(p/4)(9.32-8.02)/100
= 10599 mm2
Steel required on outer face = 35328-10599 = 24729 mm2
C/s area of vertical bond bar (diameter = 12 mm) = 113 mm2
No of bars required on inner face=10599/113 = 94 nos
Diameter to center of bond bars at inner face = 8.0+2*0.050+2*0.012+0.012
= 8.136 m
Circumference at center of inner bars=(p*8.136) = 25.560 m
Spacing of inner bond bars=25.560/94*1000 = 272 mm
Limiting spacing to = 200 mm
Number of bond bars at inside face=25.560/0.200 = 128 nos
No of bars required on outerr face=24729/113 = 219 nos
Diameter to center of bond bars at inner face = 9.3-2*0.050-2*0.012-0.012
= 9.164 m
Circumference at center of inner bars=(p*9.164) = 28.790 m
Spacing of inner bond bars=28.790/219 = 131 mm
< 650 mm
Provide 12 mm vertical bond bars at 100 mm c/c at outer face. Hence ok
No of bars required = 28.790/0.1 = 288 nos
Hence, provide 288 nos of 12 mm dia vertical bond bars at outer face and 128 nos of
12 mm dia vertical bond bars at inner face of steining giving total steel provided
=(288+128)*113= 47008 mm2 >35328 mm2 Hence ok
 b Horizontal hoops

Weight of hoops/m height= =0.00707*7850 = 55.5 kg
Length of outer hoop = p*(9.30-2*0.05-0.012) = 28.86 m
Length of inner hoop = p*(8.00+2*0.05+0.012) = 25.48 m
Total length of hoops in a layer = 54.35 m
Weight of hoops in a layer = 48.3 kg
Required Spacing of hoops=48.3/55.5 = 0.870 m

Steel required (As per clause 708.7.3 of IRC-78:2000) = 72 kg/m3
Total steel required=72*13.282 = 956 kg
Weight of Hoops: Using 16 mm dia bars (1.578 kg/m)
Hoop at Diamter,m Length, m Nos Weight

Lower =9.45-2*0.075-2*0.315=8.57 27.24 1 42.98 kg
Total weight of all hoops (excluding overlaps) = 735 kg
Required weight of stirrups= 956-735 = = 221 kg
Length of stirrup = 3.75 m
Using 12 mm dia stirrups
Weight of each stirrup = 3.75*0.888 = 3.33 kg
No of stirrups = 221/3.33 = 67
Diameter to center of outer leg=9.45-2*0.05-0.012 = 9.338 m
Circumference at outer leg = p*9.338 = 29.34 m
Spacing of stirrups at outer face = 29.34/67 = 0.438 m
Hence, provide 12 mm dia stirrups at 150 mm c/c
Design Summary for curb
No of Hoops = 17
Diameter of Hoops = 16 mm
Spacing of 12 mm dia stirrups = 100 mm
Also, prodive 12 mm dia ties to hoops in 2nd to 6th layers at 150 mm c/c
