Axially-loaded Columns
Ultimate nominal load capacity of the
reinforced concrete columns is obtained
using the equation below:
'
Po = 0.85 f Ac + Ast f y
c
Eqn. 422.4.2.2
where Ast = total steel compressive area
Ac = Ag − Ast
Ag = gross concrete area

NSCP 2015 Limitations
1.Strength Reduction factors (Section 421)
Tied columns: φ =0.65
Spiral Columns: φ =0.75
2.Longitudinal steel percentage, ρg
ρmin = 1% (Section 410.6.1.1)
ρmax = 8%
3.Minimum number of longitudinal bars
Tied columns: 4 bars (Section 410.7.3)
Spiral Columns: 6 bars
For other shapes – one bar at each corner

NSCP Limitations (Section 425.7.3)
5.Minimum diameter of spirals = 10mm
• Clear spacing should not be more than
75mm nor less than 25mm and (4/3)dagg
• Splices may be provided by welding or
lapping
• Lapping – 48 bar diameters (48D) or a
minimum of 300mm
6.Minimum diameter of ties (Section 425.7.2)
• 32mm diam. long. bars or smaller = 10mm
• Larger diameter bars = 12mm

Design of Axially Loaded
Rectangular Column
Design a rectangular tied column to carry a
factored axial load of 1750 kN. Use f’c = 30
MPa and fy=420 MPa. Adopt a steel ratio of
2%. One of its dimension is 300 mm since it is
connected to a beam with a width of 300 mm.
