Column Design for Fixed Conditions

This document provides the design of a column that is 400mm in diameter and 4m in length with both ends fixed. The column is classified as short as its slenderness ratio is less than 12. The total factored load on the column is calculated to be 258.84kN. The required area of longitudinal reinforcement is determined to be 1350mm2. Six 25mm diameter bars will be provided. Lateral ties of 8mm diameter bars will be provided at a pitch of 256mm.
