Column design - Are you Interpreting the minimum reinforcement in column in the right way?

Column design is a major step in Structural design of buildings.
Structural design of columns involves a lot of structural concepts. This video emphasises on minimum reinforcement in column.
Most engineers know that 0.8% is the minimum percentage of steel in column. However a very few know that 0.8% is not really based on the provided area of column design, if the column is over sized. It is based on the required area of concrete.
By carefully knowing all the column design principles and code provisions, you can make the structural design of columns economic as well.
If you like to learn these points that matters most in economising your building structural design, consider my mentoring program👇🏽 bit.ly/3StMsPo

Explained very well. Thank you for sharing the knowledge

Thanks for the comment and great to know you liked it

[@struct-architecture2779]

How we will come to know about the "concrete area required to resist direct stress" in etabs, if the column is oversized?

[@CIVILERABangalore]

ETABS will not show this. You need to check all your columns that shows up as 0.8%

thank you sir ❤ pls make video on yield line theory in rcc slab design

Thanks. there are some videos on slabs already. Plz chk

hey thanks for your kind words 🙂

[@nramanjaneyulu2842]

sir
if we provide more than max. Reinforcement, is there any problem? in beams, we have over/under reinforced, but in columns, no such things?na?

[@CIVILERABangalore]

It should not be creating congestion

Sir could you please make an vedeos on side face reinforcement for beams

Let me try 🙂What do you do now?

Hello, such an informative video. I want to know how you will determine if etabs use the gross area or the tributary area for the steel reinforcements calculation. Thank you

[@CIVILERABangalore]

Thanks a lot for your comments.
Am a little concerned about your question as I feel that your understanding is slightly different. The tributary area comes in to picture when you calculate the load. Am not 100% sure what you meant though.
The comparison wrt rebar area is gross area vs required area to take the actual axial stress.

[@ramonbaccomperi7871]

So tributary area is the area where the load is acting if I'm right so it's different from the actual area or?

[@CIVILERABangalore]

Am not sure of your question

Great information regarding IS456 .
But if column is part of LLRS means ,column to be designed for ductility for seismic loading as per is13920 , in that case also can we reduce pt

[@CIVILERABangalore]

See, this point is when you get a min steel as an end result.
For ductility, there are many criteria including the strong column and weak beam!
If you have rightly sized, the chances of getting such a condition of min steel is rare in large projects.
But the world is not just with large projects, we do also have smaller projects. There are quite a lot of engineers who in the search of knowledge miss to remember the fact that there is a huge amount of clients looking to solve simple issues economically. I have a large number of audience on YT who are looking to freelance on their own and they do smaller projects. The motto is to enable engineers to do economically but at the same time with no compromises.
