STEEL COLUMN DESIGN: (as per IS 800:1984)
REV: 0
Notes: SHEET NO : 3 OF 6

1 This workbook has been developed in Microsoft Office Excel-2003 on Microsoft Windows XP Operating System.
This workbook may be used for the design of steel column subjected to combined axial compression & bi-axial bending as per the IS 800:1984,
2
which uses Allowable Stress Design.
3 Major axis for the column section is x-x and Minor axis for the column is y-y
4 This workbook is not applicable for design of built-up steel columns i.e. columns built out of either section+plates or entirely with plates.
5 This workbook is applicable for sections ISMB 100 to ISMB 600 & ISMC 75 to ISMC 400
Property table ( as per IS 808 : 1989 ) for the column section listed under point no. 5, is attached to the spreadsheet, therefore user is advised not to
6
input properties for the same.
Table for Maximum Permissible Bending stresses as per IS 800 Table 6.1-B Page no. 58, is linked to this workbook. Therefore user does not have to
7
input the same.
8 This workbook does not perform deflection check, however user is advised to check the deflection manually especially under heavy lateral loads.
9 User must verify the availability of sections before using, especially section MB350, MB550, MC350 & MC400.
10 User is advised to make a trial section first, to check the requirement of minimum area and section modulus.

Following colour key is used.

9 Moment about y-y axis, My = 0.000 kNm
10 Unsupported length of column about x-x axis = L x =
11 4.800 m
12 Unsupported length of column about y-y axis = L y = 4.800 m
13 Effective length factor for comp. buckling about x-x = K x = 1.200 (As per Table 5.2 of IS:800)
14
15 Effective length factor for comp. buckling about y-y = K y = 1.200 (As per Table 5.2 of IS:800)
16 Yield Stress of the steel, fy = 250 N/mm2 My
17 Effective length about x-x axis = Lex = Lx . Kx =
18 5.760 m y
19 Effective length about y-y axis = Ley = Ly . Ky = 5.760 m
20 P TRIAL SECTION :
21
Initially assuming s bc as 0.66 fy and
22
23 s ac as 0.60 fy
24 We have, s bc = 165 N/mm2
25
26 and s ac = 150 N/mm2
27 Minimum area, A
28 = P / s ac
29
30 Height = 4.800 m = 4000x1000/(150x100)
31 = 266.667 cm2
32 Minimum section modulus, Zxx
33
34 = Mx / s bc
35 = 0x10^6/(165x10^3)
36 B] SECTIONAL PROPERTIES OF BEAM as per IS 808 (1989) : = 0.000 cm3
37 Beam section = ISMB600 Select the section
38 Depth of column section, D = 600 mm whose Area is
39
40 Breadth of flange, Bf = 210 mm greater than
41 Thickness of web, tw = 12 mm ### cm2 and
42 Thickness of flange, T = 20.3 mm section modulus is
43

44
45 Moment of inertia about minor axis, Iyy = 2650 cm 4
0.0 cm3
46 Area of section, A = 156.0 cm2
47
48 Modulus of section( about major axis ), Zxx = 3060.0 cm3
49 Modulus of section( about minor axis ), Zyy = 252.0 cm3
50 Radius of gyration about y-y, ry = 41.2 mm
Radius of gyration about x-x, rx = 242.0 mm
Slenderness Ratio about y-y = ly = Ley / ry = 5760 / 41.2 = 139.81
Slenderness Ratio about x-x = lx = Lex / rx = 5760 / 242 = 23.80
Maximum Slenderness Ratio = lmax = 139.81 <= 180.0 Hence Safe

24

26 T/tw = ( 20.3 ) / 12 = 1.69 d1/tw = (600-2x20.3) / 12 = 46.62

27 Actual bending stress, s bcy cal = My / Zyy = 0 / 252 = 0.000 N/mm2
28
29 J] COMBINATION OF STRESSES:
30 As per Clause 7.1.1 of IS:800,
31 When (sac, cal. / sac, per.) > 0.15
32
33 (sac, cal. / sac, per.) + (Cmx . sbcx, cal. / sbcx, modified) + (Cmy . sbcy, cal. / sbcy, modified) <= 1.0 . . . Equation I
34 However When (sac, cal. / sac, per.) <= 0.15
35
36 (sac, cal. / sac, per.) + (sbcx, cal. / sbcx, per.) + (sbcy, cal. / sbcy, per.) <= 1.0 . . . Equation II
37
38 As per step E above, sac cal / sac per. = 5.054 > 0.15
39
Hence Equation I will govern
40
41 We have
42 Combined Stress Ratio = 5.054 + (0.85 x 0 / -333.325 ) + (0.85 x 0 / 144.742)
43
44 = 5.054 > 1.000 Hence Unsafe
45 K] CHECK FOR SHEAR STRESS:
46
Resultant shear force = V = Sqrt ( Vx2 + Vy2) = Sqrt (0^2 + 0^2) = 0.000 kN
47
48
49 Actual Shear Stress = V / (D . tw) = 0 x 1000 / (600 x 12 ) = 0.000 N/mm2
50 0.4 fy =
Permissible Shear Stress = 100.00 N/mm2 > 0.00 N/mm2
Hence Safe
