Min. 4 bars in rectangular/square column and min. 6 bars in circular shape column.
The bar shall not be less than 12mm. The nominal cover shall any case not be less than 40mm.
In our site they provided 40mm cover. Min. Distance b/w individual bars -the dia of larger bar -5mm more.
Nominal max. Size of coarse aggregate.

Minimum diameter for longitudinal bars are 12 mm. It is circular as for given volume, surface area is maximum. Hence more surface area for bond with concrete. In circular, it is 6 bars as it can be compared with hexagonal and 1 bar supposed in each corner for proper placing of lateral ties.

In Column reversal of bending moment may be occurred, hence, to column are reinforced on both faces. To fulfill the reversal condition of BM minimum no of bars in rectangular is taken as 4, in circular 6 and in octagon 8.

@Kiran.
For circular column you can not use 4 bars, For Circular column, you need minimum 6 bar.
And for Rectangular shape of the column, you can use 4 bars minimum.
For circular column you can not use 4 bars, For Circular column, you need minimum 6 bar.
And for Rectangular shape of the column, you can use 4 bars minimum.

The minimum vertical space of the main reinforcement in RCC beam is the diameter of the larger bar or two-third the nominal maximum size of coarse aggregate.

India 4 & 5 bars used the column spacing can more than 300 mm so the column concrete will be out side in column. Next the strength will be reduce.

Why always the number of steel bar are in even number?
Not in odd number like 5 bars 7 bars.
While we can but the extra bars in the tension zone.

In column there is a buckling moment due to the up coming load so at each corner there should be a longitudinal main steel bar is provided.

Can we provide an unequal number of bars (eg- 7 nos, 9 nos, 11 nos, 13nos) in a column? if not why? Please explain to me.
