27.
A short column 20 cm x 20 cm in section is reinforced with 4 bars whose area of cross section is 20 sq. cm. If permissible compressive stresses in concrete and steel are 40 kg/cm2 and 300 kg/cm2, the Safe load on the column, should not exceed
4120 kg
41, 200 kg
412, 000 kg
none of these.

How to calculate the safe load of column?

Dayanand Pathak said:   1 decade ago
As per IS-456 strength of the RCC columm is 0.4*Fck*Ac + 0.67*Fy*Asc.

As per above Quation strength will be 0.4*40*(20*20-20)+ 0.67*300*20 = 10,100 KG.

please clearify the same.

Multiply the above answer by 4 because we have provided 4 number of bars.

Its strength of column as a whole and not for individual bars.

Pu = 0.4fck Ac+ .67fy As.

Ac = 20 * 20 - 4(20).
= 400-80 = 320.

As = 4 * 20 = 80.

fck = 40.
fy = 300.

Pu = 0.4 * 40 * 320 + 0.67 * 300 * 80 = 21200kg.

How answer is 41200 kg?

Gowri said:   1 decade ago
pu = 0.4*Fck*Ac+0.67*Fy*.

As use this formula and multiply 4 no.of columns.

This not ultimate load it is require only safe load.

So the equation shall be p = Ac*FC+As*FS.

p = 20*20*40+(4*20)*300 = 40000 kg.

What is the rcc slab?

Put the formula, P = sigma sc * Asc + sigma cc * Ac.
All data are given you just find P value.
