To prevent the column from bulking that causes by verticla forces..thats why they recommended to be tie closely to reduce the posibility of bulking...
Secondly,as they tie horizontally they increase shear resistance of a colum

Answer / shahzad

To resist the shear stresses developed due to loads

Answer / vaisakh

There are several reasons. primary reason is that concrete have low unconfined compressive strength and there for the chance for failure due to lateral expansion of concrete (poisson effect) and its failure is more. Stirrups confine this concrete and prevent splitting up of concrete.second important thing is that stirrups prevent steel main rebars from buckling and also holds them together while concreting. third important function is to provide ductility to the column preventing explosive failure.
