Column is a compression member, concrete is strong in compression..then what is the reason to the column reinforcement..?

Answer Posted / rajeshkerai

It is true that a column is a compression member but it has to be designed in such a way to withstand the imposed load.

If you want the column to carry the imposed load without any reinforcement, then it will have to be of a much larger size than you see the columns around. This will create a reduction in the floor area.
therefore the reinforcements are used to minimize the size of the column in order to get the maximum space around.
