Creep rate depends on the composition of the concrete and environmental conditions. Similar to steel, concrete multi-storey buil 1S can either consist of portal frames or braced frames that depend on bracing or diaphragms with concrete core walls for lateral stability.

Bracing should be used throughout the height of the building, unless transfer structures are used. The shear center should be coinciding with the point of where the resultant of overturning forces is. Reinforced Concrete: Column Design Scheme Design We will always design columns and other compression members where their vertical loads act ‘concentrically to the neutral axis of the structural members. In these situations, these structural members are axially loaded by direct compressive stresses. Concrete columns are structural members that help structural durability and resist and supports vertical loads. To distinguish concrete columns from concrete piers and walls, the bigger cross-section dimension should not be larger than four times its smaller dimension In practical applications, vertical loads act eccentrically to the neutral axis of the structural member. Therefore, in actual practice, both the compressive stresses that act concentrically to the neutral axis of the structural member AND the bending stresses induced by the compressive stresses that act eccentrically to the neutral axis of the structural member need to be accounted for in the structural design We will only focus on compressive stresses that act concentrically to the neutral axis in scheme designs. Concrete columns are considered to be braced when the overall structure is designed to resist lateral loads. Braced columns are columns in a stability system with shear or core walls. Unbraced columns are columns in a system where the only structural elements supporting the overall stability of the structure are the columns, Columns are short if slenderness is less than 15 for braced columns or 10 for unbraced columns. + Short columns - Crushing failure is caused by direct compression stresses. + Slender columns - Lateral buckling and crushing failure are caused by direct compression stresses and bending stresses caused by eccentric compression stresses, The amount of failure hipikwww sturdystructral comireinforced-concrat Hm aneaapotr Reirforced Concrete - Sturdy Structural Sign up! 1, Determine fy and fou 2.
