Question: Design a rectangular reinforced concrete column to support the design loads shown below. Assume that the column must be 2 0 wide, = 0

Design a rectangular reinforced concrete column to support the design loads shown below. Assume that the column must be 20" wide, =0.8, and that the reinforcement is placed out to the edges. Architectural constraints are such that the maximum depth (h) is 22-in. Use the appropriate interaction diagram to select the reinforcement ratio, select appropriate longitudinal reinforcement, and design the ties. Use either No.9 or 10 bars for your longitudinal bars. Take fc'=4,000 and fy=60,000 psi. (25 pts.)
