Design Of Links
Main Links
Links in the zone where special confining links are not required
Normal Links
Diameter of link = 8 mm
> Max.longitudinal bar dia / 4
= 3
Criterion for spacing of normal links
Min. Longitudinal Bar dia X 16 = 192 mm
Min. dimension of column = 500 mm
Maximum,300mm = 300 mm
Least lateral edge dimension/2 = 250 mm
Spacing considered = 175 mm
Special confining reinforcement as per IS 13920 - 2016
6 X Smallest Longitudinal Bar Dia = 72 mm
Hence Link spacing, Sv = 70 mm
Hoop dimension, h (B - 2 x Cover + 2 x Link Dia ) / ( No of Rebars Along B -1)
Along B = 104.00 mm
Along D (D - 2 x Cover + 2 x Link Dia ) / ( No of Rebars Along D -1)
= 119.33 mm
Max (Along B, Along D) 119.33 mm
Gross area of column, Ag BxD = 400000.00 sqmm
Core area of column, Ak (B- 2 x cover to Link) x (D- 2 x cover to Link)
297856.00 sqmm
Area of special confining link, Ash1 (0.18 x S x h x (Fck/Fy) x (Ag/Ak-1))
= 31.062 sqmm
Area of special confining link, Ash2 (0.05 x S x h x (Fck/Fy) )
25.161 sqmm
Area of special confining link, Ash Maximum (Ash1,Ash2)
31.062 sqmm
Diameter of special confining link = 8 mm
= Max. longitudinal bar dia / 4
= 3 mm
Zone for special confining links - criterion
Max. Size of column,D = 800 mm
= 2000 mm
= 450 mm
Hence length of confining zone = 2000 mm
