Question: Column design: A column shown below has ties as transverse reinforcement conforming to ACl 2 5 . 7 . 3 . Assume normal - weight

Column design: A column shown below has ties as transverse reinforcement conforming
to ACl 25.7.3. Assume normal-weight concrete with fc'=4000 and Grade 60
reinforcement.
(a) Calculate the theoretical compression strength Po per ACI318-19.(10 points)
(b) Calculate the maximum design axial compression strength Pn,max of the column. (10 points)
(c) Calculate the nominal compressive strength (Pn) if the neutral axis is 6 in. measured from the
right edge of the column. Assume bending is about the Y axis. (10 points)
Column design: A column shown below has ties as
