for a column of size 400*230mm
column reinforcement= 8-20x(cant write the symbol,i hope u
guys undersstand,something like (fi)
column stirups=8x@(4l) 230c/c

1)what does these mean
2)how to calculate quantity of steel for this column(ceiling
height 11 ft)



for a column of size 400*230mm column reinforcement= 8-20x(cant write the symbol,i hope u guys un..

Answer / Muneesh Kumar Varshney

1) In the given reinforcement notation, '8-20' represents the number and size of longitudinal bars (or rebars). The first number indicates the minimum number of bars, while the second number denotes the maximum number. The symbol 'fi' typically represents a longitudinal bar or rebar in reinforced concrete.nn'@(4l) 230c/c' means that there are four longitudinal bars at a spacing of 230mm (centre to centre). The 'c' stands for cover, which is the distance from the outer surface of the reinforcement to the formwork.nn2) To calculate the quantity of steel for this column, you need to first determine the total area of reinforcement. Assuming equal sized bars, the area of one bar (A_bar) can be calculated as follows:nnA_bar = (diameter)^2 * π / 4nThen, the total reinforcement area (A_total) is found by multiplying A_bar with the number of bars and the total number of layers:nnA_total = A_bar * (number of bars) * (number of layers)nNext, to determine the length of each bar, you need to know the height of the column and the spacing between the bars. Assuming 4l spacing and considering one layer, the length of a single bar (L_bar) is:nnL_bar = (height of the column - cover - diameter) / (4l + 2 * cover)nFinally, to find the total quantity of steel, multiply A_total by L_bar for all bars.
