1. Design a square tied column to carry the

following loads:

Axial load:
Dead Load = 1100KN
Live Load = 700KN

Use fy = 414Mpa and f’c = 27.6MPa. Assume

2% steel ratio and use 25mm main bars.

2. An old building structural frame was inspected.

The measured length of the beam is 6m. Width
of the beam is 300mm and the total depth is
500mm. The reinforcement is determined to be
3-20mm diameter tension bars and 12mm
diameter stirrups. It is also determined that f’c =
28MPa and fy = 415Mpa. SDL is 12KN/m. Use
Mu = WL2/11 and assume a one way
distribution with tributary width equal to 4m.

a. Using 2010 NSCP, determine the max. safe floor

live load (kPa) if basic dead load and live load
combination governs.
