This course has been discontinued.

The purpose of this course is to cover some of the aspects of a column that will influence your selection, design, and/or analysis of a column(s) to be used in the support of a structure. This course will cover such topics as:
  • Describe types of columns
  • Discuss failure of tied and spiral columns
  • Identify the limitations specified by the ACE Code requirements
  • Define economical column design
  • Recognize formulas for design of axially loaded columns
  • Describe various reinfocing methods
  • Describe types of columns
  • Discuss failure of tied and spiral columns
  • Identify the limitations specified by the ACE Code requirements
  • Define economical column design
  • Recognize formulas for design of axially loaded columns
  • Describe various reinforcing methods

Course Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, you will be able to:
  • Provide six ways a column section can fail.
  • Define and locate a plastic centroid provided with a column’s comprehensive stress and yield stress.
  • Develop an interaction curve of a nominal axial load and moments values for a particular column.
  • Explain why it is not possible to prevent sudden compression failures or balanced failures in columns.
  • Explain the use of interaction diagrams and the different parts of an interaction diagram.
  • Provide the three modification codes of column interaction diagrams and explain the differences between each of them.
  • Design a column provided with comprehensive stress, yield stress, and the maximum loads from factored loads.
  • Explain how to achieve a good column size using a trial and error method.
  • Identify and explain the different parts of the ACI equations used to determine the shearing force that can be carried for a concrete member that is subjected to axial compression and shearing forces.
  • Define and calculate biaxial bending moments for different shapes of columns (e.g., circular, spiral, etc.), using an equation, such as the Bresler equation, to analyze your results.
  • Select the correct method for designing columns with biaxial moments and provide a rationale for choosing that particular method.
  • Provide a brief description of how to calculate the thermal strain (Ô‘t) for a particular column.
