Column in basement, ground floor it's location is correct but in first floor column is shifted on side by 50 mm bodily. Placing of beams at 2nd floor rests on column body. So, structurally is it ok? since centre line of column changing now. This column ends at 2nd-floor roof level. Please answer me.

@All

Who are all saying 20mm is the answer, please note that 20mm is the minimum criteria above which a column is considered eccentric in X or Y.

However, when you go to design a column, you have to adopt a higher value of 50mm for a safer design consideration.

The minimum eccentricity of column 20mm.

But given question column should be eccentricity loading so answer 50mm.

As per IS 456 : 2000, Clause 25.4 "Minimum Eccentricity", it says 20mm.

DIWAKAR said:   10 years ago
As per RCC designs the minimum eccentricity is 50 mm and maximum is 1.5 D.

20mm is correct. Because (L/500+b/30) = more than or at least 20 mm.

Poojapathak said:   1 decade ago
Minimum eccentricity is 20mm as per indian standard code 456:2000.

The option is B. 20mm in code book or else explain briefly.

Nithish said:   10 years ago
Is code gave 20 mm is minimum eccentricity?

Gopal saini said:   1 decade ago
Minimum eccentricity is 20 to 25 mm.
