Part 1 Bottom for Y‐Y direction = 1
Top for X‐X direction = 2
Bottom for X‐X direction = 1

Values of β for both axes

Table 3.21 & For Y‐Y direction about X‐X axis βx = 1.3
3.22 For X‐X direction about Y‐Y axis βy = 1.3

Clause 3.8.1.6 Effective height of column for about X-X lex = βx lox
axis = 1.3 x 6250
= 8125 mm

Clause 3.8.1.6 Effective height of column for about Y-Y ley = βy loy

= 8125 mm

Clause 3.8.1.3 For about X‐X axis lex/h = 8125 / 400

= 20.313
≥ 10 For Unbraced Column
→ Slender

Clause 3.8.1.3 For about X‐X axis ley/b = 8125 / 300

= 27.08

h' = h‐ cover ‐ dia of link ‐ dia of bar/2 h' = 342 mm

= 400 - 40 - 10 - 8

b' = b ‐ cover ‐ dia of link ‐ dia of bar/2

= 300 - 40 - 10 - 8
= 242 mm b' = 242 mm

DESIGN OF SLENDER COLUMNS

Assume 100Asc/bh = 1.10 %

Ac = ( 1- 0.011 )bh
= 0.989 bh

Nuz = 0.45fcuAc + 0.87fyAsc

= (0.45x 30 x -0.1 + .87 x 460 x 0.011 )xbh
= 17.7537 bh
= 17.7537 x 300 x 400 x10^-3
= 2130.4 kN

Nbal = 0.25fcu b h
= 0.25x 30 x 300 x 400 x10^-3
= 900 kN

K = Nuz - N
Nuz - Nbal
= 2130.4 - 236.8
2130.4 - 900

= 1.54 > 1 → Use K = 1

aux = βaxKh
= Kh(lex/h) 2/2000
= 1 x 400 x 20.3125 ^2/2000
= 82.52 mm

auy = βayKb
= Kh(ley/h) 2/2000
= 1 x 300 x 27.08 ^2/2000
= 110.03 mm

Madd,x = Naux
= 236.8 x 0.083
= 19.654 kNm
 Madd,y = Nauy
= 236.8 x 0.11
= 26.048 kNm

Initial moment about X‐X axis Mi,xx = 0.4M1xx + 0.6M2xx ≥ 0.4M2xx

= 9.58 ≥ 4.2
= 9.58

Initial moment about Y‐Y axis Mi,yy = 0.4M1yy + 0.6M2yy ≥ 0.4M2yy

= 20.7 ≥ 8.6
= 20.70

For about X‐X axis

M2xx = 10.50 kNm
Mixx + Madd,x = 29.23 kNm
M1xx + Madd,x/2 = 18.03 kNm
emin,xN = 4.74 kNm

Hence maximum design moment about X‐X

axis for this slender column Mx = 29.23 kNm

For about Y‐Y axis

M2yy = 21.50 kNm
Miyy + Madd,y = 46.75 kNm
M1yy + Madd,y/2 = 32.52 kNm
emin,yN = 3.55 kNm

Hence maximum design moment about Y‐Y

axis for this slender column My = 46.75 kNm

For column subjected to moments and direct load

Table 3.24 N/(bhf cu) = 236.8 x10^3/( 300 x 400 x 30 )
= 0.0658
β = 0.92

Clause 3.8.4.5 Mx/h' = 29.2344 / 342

= 0.085
My/b' = 46.748 / 242
= 0.193

Hence My/h' > Mx/b' Therefore My' = My + β(b'/h')Mx

= 46.748 + 0.92 ( 242 / 342 )29.2344
= 84.8 kNm

Clause 3.8.4.5 N/(bh) = 236.8 x10^3 /(300 x 400 )

= 1.97

M/(bh2) = 84.76 x10^6 /(300 x 400^2 )

= 1.77
 d/h = 342 / 400
= 0.85

BS 8110 Part 3 100Asc/bh = 0.8

Design Charts Asc = 0.8 bh/100
= 0.8 x 300 x 400 /100
= 960 mm2
8T16, will be provided Asprov = 1608.5 mm2

Minimum reinforcement
BS8110:Part 1 : Required minimum compression r/f Asc, min = 0.4xbxh/100
1985 = 0.4 x 300x400/100
Clause 3.12.5 = 480 mm2

Maximum reinforcement
BS8110:Part 1 : For vertical cast column Asc, max = 6xbxh/100
1985 = 6x 300x400/100
Clause 3.12.6.2 = 7200 mm2

Hence required r/f area Asc = 960 mm2

Required No of bars = 6 bars

Provided No of Bars = 6 bars

Maximum C/C spacing of bars = ( 400 - 40 x2 -16 x2-10 x2)/4

= 89.33 mm

Minimum C/C spacing of bars = ( 400 - 40 x2 -16 x1-10 x2)/2

= 142 mm

Design for shear

BS8110:Part 1 : Mxx/N = ( 29.23 / 236.8 ) x 10^3
1985 = 123.44 mm < 0.75h
Clause 3.8.4.6
Myy/N = ( 46.75 / 236.8 ) x10^3)
= 197.42 mm < 0.75b

vxx = Vxx/bh
= 4.5 x10^3 /( 300 x 400 )
= 0.04 N/mm 2

vyy = Vyy/bh
= 10.2 x 10^3/( 300 x 400 )
= 0.09 N/mm 2

Minimum of 0.8√fcu or 5 N/mm2 = 4.38 N/mm 2

Hence shear check is not required OK
 100As/bd = ( 100x 1608 )/( 300 x242 )
= 2.21 < 3
→ ok

400/d = 400 / 242

= 1.6529 > 1
→ Hence, 400/d = 1

Design shear stress, vc = 0.79[100As/bd] 1/3[400/d] 1/4[fcu/25] 1/3/γ m

= 0.79( 2.21)^(1/3)x (1)^(1/4) x (30 /25)^(1/3) /1.25
= 0.875

Vd/M = 0.03 < 1

→ Ok

vc ' = vc + 0.75 (N/Ac)(Vxd/M)

= 0.87 ≤ Min(0.8√fcu or 5 N/mm 2)
= 0.87 N/mm 2

v = V/bvd
= 0.14 N/mm 2
< Vc '

BS8110:Part 1 : Containment of reinforcement

1985
Clause3.12.7.1 Minimum diameter of link = Maximum of (0.25 x dia or 6mm )
= 6 mm → OK

Maximum spacing of links = 12 x dia of bar

= 192 mm

Hence suitable shear links spacing T 10 @175 mm

3.1.5.1.6 SUMMARY OF REINFORCEMENT

Main reinforcement bars = 8T16, Nos

Shear links required = T10 @ 175 mm
