DETERMINATION OF THE AREA OF REINFORCEMENT OF REINFORCED CONCRETE COLUMNS OF CIRCULAR CROSS SECTION
A mathematical expression has been developed for determining the cross-sectional area of reinforcement of an eccentrically compressed reinforced concrete column of circular cross section, which makes it possible to simplify consideration of the infl uence of structural indicators and quality parameters of reinforcement and concrete on the required area of longitudinal reinforcement of reinforced concrete column. An example of using this formula in the calculation is shown. This mathematical expression can be used in the design of reinforced concrete columns, racks of power lines and circular supports as the least time-consuming method of engineering calculation, allowing to determine the cross-sectional area of longitudinal reinforcement.
