    REINFORCING

    DETAILS OF RCC
    COLUMN
    &FOOTING

    Column
    Columns are vertical compression members
    of a structural frame intended to support the
    load-carrying beams. They transmit loads
    from the upper floors to the lower levels and
    then to the soil through the foundations.
    Usually columns carry bending moment as
    well, about one or both axes of the cross
    section, and the bending action may produce
    tensile forces over a part of the cross section
    Reinforcement are provided in order to
    reduce the size of the column

    The main reinforcement in columns is


    longitudinal, parallel to the direction of the load
    and consists of bars arranged in a square,
    rectangular, or circular shape

    Main steel is provided to resist compression load


    along with concrete
    Reinforcement Requirements (Longitudinal Steel
    Ast)
    min Ast 0.8 % of C/S
    max Ast 6% of C/S

    The object of stipulating a min. percentage of


    steel is to make provision to prevent buckling of
    column due to any accidental eccentricity of the
    load on it
    For stipulating a max. percentage of steel is to
    provide reinforcement with in such a limit to
    avoid congestion of reinforcement which would
    make it very difficult to place the concrete and
    consolidate it

    Min. 4 bars in rectangular/square column and min. 6


    bars in circular shape column
    The bar shall not be less than 12mm
    The nominal cover shall any case not be less than
    40mm.
    In our site they provided 40mm cover
    Min. distance b/w individual bars
    -the dia of larger bar
    -5mm more nominal max. size of coarse aggregate

    Spacing of longitudinal bars shall not exceed


    300mm from the periphery of the column
    in our site they provided rectangular and circular
    columns
    For rectangular column
    -distributed the reinforcement equally on four
    sides

    - the no. of bars in a column are varying from 10,


    12,14, 16, of varying diameter
    They provide different diameter main bars i.e.,
    16mm,20mm,25mm
    In our site 450mm dia. circular column Is used
    For circular column they provide 6 nos 20mm
    dia. And 6 nos 16mm dia
    The effective length provide is 48 times the dia .
    Of bar

    TRANSVERSE REINFORCEMENT
    In order to maintain the position of longitudinal
    reinforcement and also to prevent their buckling which
    may cause splitting of concrete. It is also assist
    confining the concrete
    The diameter of transverse reinforcement shall not be
    less than 1/4th dia. of main bar in no case less than 5mm
    The spacing of lateral ties
    the least lateral dimension of the column/16times the
    dia. Of main bars
    max spacing is 300mm

    In our site they provided lateral ties of diameter


    8mm at a spacing 200 and 250mm c/c
