Question 1
Design a column section adhering to IS 13920 standards for a building in a Zone V area. Consider fck = 20 MPa and Ag = 400 cm². What transverse reinforcement would you specify?
💡 Hint: Refer to the detailed spacing required for ties in the standards.
Question 2
A building's column failed during an earthquake, and analysis shows inadequate transverse reinforcement was the cause. Propose a detailing plan that could strengthen the column.
💡 Hint: Evaluate existing configurations and suggest enhancements based on seismic codes.
