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

Answer Posted / karan agrawal

Column is a compression member is correct but if we will not provide reinforcement the size of column would be very much larger. This will affect the aesthetic appearance and the room size.
Concrete is good in compression and Steel is good in tension is our common terminology but this dosen't mean that steel is poor in compression. Actually steel is good in both tension and compression and its purpose in providing in column is to reduce the size of column and bear the lateral forces
