Transcript of Design of Columns to Eurocode
What is columnThe columns in a structure carry the loads from the beams and slabs down to the foundations and therefore they are primarily compression members , although they may also have to resist bending forces and to the continuity structure.

h – larger of the two cross-section dimension
b – Smaller of the two cross-section dimension
Lex - Effective height w.r.t major axis of bending
Ley –Effective height w.r.t minor axis of bending
Lox- Clear height between restrains w.r.t major axis
Loy –Clear height between restrains w.r.t minor axis

Euercode 2 states that second order effects may be ignored if they are less that 10% of the first order effects. As an alternative, if the slenderness is less than the slenderness limit , then second order effects may be ignored.

• The basic equations derived for a rectangular section as shown in figure and with a rectangular stress block are,
1. For the depth to the neutral axis x determine the strain εsc in the compression steel and the strain εst in the tension steel.
2. Determine the steel stresses fsc in compression and fst in tension from the stress-strain diagram .The forces in the steel are Cs= fscAs ′ in compression and T=fstAs in tension.
𝑁𝐸𝑑 − design ultimate axial load 𝑀𝐸𝑑 − design ultimate moment 𝑠− the depth of the stress block = 0.8x 𝐴′𝑠 − the area of longitudinal reinforcement in the more highly compressed face 𝐴𝑠 = the area of reinforcement in the other face 𝑓𝑠𝑐 − the stress in reinforcement 𝐴′𝑠 𝑓𝑠 − the stress in reinforcement 𝐴𝑠 ,negative when tesile.
• For most column,biaxial bending will not govern the design.
• Building’s internal and edge columns will not usually cause large moments in both directions.
• Corner columns may have to resist significant bending about both axes,but the axial loads are usually small and a design similar to the adjacent edge columns is generally adequate.
• For members with a rectangular cross section,separate checks in the two principal planes are permissible if the ratio of the corresponding eccentricities satisfies one of the following conditions.
Subject to the following conditions;
a) if 𝑀𝑧ℎ′ ≥ 𝑀𝑦𝑏′
then the increased single axis design moment is
𝑀𝑧′ = 𝑀𝑧 + 𝛽ℎ′𝑏′ × 𝑀𝑦
b) if 𝑀𝑧ℎ′ < 𝑀𝑦𝑏′
then the increased single axis design moment is
𝑀𝑦′ = 𝑀𝑦 + 𝛽ℎ′𝑏′ × 𝑀𝑧
𝛽 = 1− 𝑁𝐸𝑑𝑏ℎ𝑓𝑐𝑘

Design of slender columns
1. A general method based on a non-linear analysis of the structure and allowing for second-order effects that necessitates the use of computer analysis.
2. A second-order analysis based on nominal stiffness values of the beams and column that,again,requires computer analysis using a process of iterative analysis.
3. The ‘moment magnification’ method where the design moment are obtained by factoring the first-order moment.
4. The ‘norminal curvature’ method where second-order moments are determined from an estimation of the column curvature.These secon-order moments are added to the first-order moments to give the total column design moment
