1 COLUMN DESIGN
STEP 1 : CALCULATION OF LOAD
Height of floor – 3m
Assuming :
1|Page
1. Load of roof slab
Self weight = b × d × D × Dc
0.125 × 25 = 3.13 KN/m2
Live load
1.5 KN/m2
Floor finish load
1 KN/m2
Terrace water proofing
0.8 KN/m2
Wu = 9.64 KN/m2
Wu = 10.7 KN/m2
3. Load of walls
Height of wall = 3 – (depth of beam)
2|Page
3 – 0.3 = 2.7 m
Self weight of wall = 0.20 × 2.7 ×20
10 KN/m
Wu = 16.2 KN/m2
4. Load of beam
Self weight ofbeam = 0.2 × 0.3 ×25
1.5 KN/m
Wu = 2.25 KN/m2

STEP 2 : LOAD ON COLUMN
14.1 KN
Coloumn load = 0.2 × 0.4 × ( 3 × 2 +0.45 + 2.55 ) × 25
18 KN
Load from above structure
586 KN
4|Page
Total Load = 620 KN
o Load ( PU ) = 620 KN
o M-20 Concrete
o Fe 415 steel
= Ag = 57943.9 mm2
le = 0.65 × 3.0
= 1.95 = 1950 mm
= 9.75 mm
= 9.75 < 12
b) No. Of bars
Ast required = 1 % of Ag =1/100 × 60,000
600 mm2
5|Page
c) Check for eccentricity
L/500 + D/30 = 1950/500 + 300/30
13.2 < 20 mm
; safe
Spacing of Ties :
As per code provision : the spacing of ties can be provided with least of three given
below –
a. Least lateral dimension of column = 200
b. 16 × diameter of main bar -
16 × 16 = 256
c. 300 mm.
Selecting least spacing as 200 mm c/c over the entire length of bar .
