ACI 318-08 Ex002

This document summarizes an example problem that tests the demand/capacity ratio calculation for a reinforced concrete column subjected to axial load and moment. The example compares the ratio calculated using SAP2000 software to an independent hand calculation. The geometry, material properties, loading and reinforcement details of the rectangular column are provided. The technical feature tested is the tied reinforced concrete column demand/capacity ratio. The results from SAP2000 and the independent calculation match exactly, with no percentage difference.

P-M INTERACTION CHECK FOR COMPRESSION-CONTROLLED RECTANGULAR COLUMN

EXAMPLE DESCRIPTION
The Demand/Capacity ratio for a given axial loading and moment is tested in this
example.

A reinforced concrete column is subjected factored axial load Pu = 398.4 k and


moments Muy = 332 k-ft. This column is reinforced with 4 #9 bars. The total area
of reinforcement is 8.00 in2. The design capacity ratio is checked by hand
calculations and result is compared.

HAND CALCULATION

COLUMN STRENGTH UNDER COMPRESSION CONTROL

fc = 4 ksi fy = 60 ksi
b = 14 inch d = 19.5 inch
Pu = 398.4 kips Mu = 332 k-ft

1) Because e = 10 inch < (2/3)d = 13 inch., assume compression failure. This assumption will be
checked later. Calculate the distance to the neutral axis for a balanced condition, cb:

Position of neutral axis at balance condition:

87 87
cb = dt = (19.5) = 11.54 inch
87 + f y 87 + 60

2) From the equation of equilibrium:

Pn = Cc + Cs T
where
Cc = 0.85 f c' ab = 0.85 4 14a = 47.6a
( )
Cs = As' f y - 0.85 f c' = 4 ( 60 - 0.85 4 ) = 226.4 kips
Assume compression steels yields, (this assumption will be checked later).
(
T = As f s = 4 f s f s < f y )
Pn = 47.6a + 226.4 - 4 f s (Eqn. 1)

3) Taking moments about As:

a '
Pn =
1
(
Cc d - 2 + Cs d - d )

e'
The plastic centroid is at the center of the section and d " = 8.5 inch
e' = e + d " = 10 + 8.5 = 18.5 inch.
1 a
Pn = 47.6a 19.5 - + 226.4 (19.5 - 2.5 )

Pn = 50.17 a - 1.29a 2 + 208 (Eqn. 2)

4) Assume c = 13.45 inch, which exceed cb (11.54 inch).

a = 0.85 13.45 = 11.43 inch

Substitute in Eqn. 2:
Pn = 50.17 11.43 - 1.29 (11.43) + 208 = 612.9 kips
2

5) Calculate fs from the strain diagram when c = 13.45 inch.

19.5 -13.45
fs = 87 = 39.13 ksi
13.45
s = t = f s Es = 0.00135

6) Substitute a = 13.45 inch and fs = 39.13 ksi in Eqn. 1 to calculate Pn2:


Pn2 = 47.6 (11.43) + 226.4 - 4 ( 39.13) = 613.9 kips
Which is very close to the calculated Pn2 of 612.9 kips (less than 1% difference)
10
M n = Pn e = 612.9 = 510.8 kips-ft
12

7) Check if compression steels yield. From strain diagram,


13.45 - 2.5
s' = ( 0.003) = 0.00244 > y = 0.00207 ksi
13.45
Compression steels yields, as assumed.

8) Calculate ,
dt = d = 19.5 inch, c = 13.45 inch
19.45 -13.45
t (at the tension reinforcement level) = 0.003 = 0.00135
13.45

Since t < 0.002 , then = 0.65

Pn = 0.65 ( 612.9 ) = 398.4 kips


M n = 0.65 ( 510.8 ) = 332 k-ft.
