CIRCULAR COLUMN DESIGN

The design of axially loaded circular columns is mainly governed by the column’s cross-section and its material properties. This is because the load acts at the center of the column, and the entire cross-sectional area of the column is in compression

Circular Column: Circular columns are mostly used in piling and elevation of the buildings for aesthetic purposes. In a circular column, more than 4 longitudinal steel bars are used as a reinforcement bar and its bending resistance is generally higher than the square or rectangular column.
