Long Column - Modified

This document provides information to check the adequacy of a slender column using the USD method from the ACI code. It summarizes the beam and column dimensions, material properties, load information from an ETABS analysis, and calculations for slenderness, sway effects, and column strength. The calculations show that the column is in the sway frame range and the magnified design moments exceed the column's capacity.

Sway/Nonsway Check
If Stability Index, Q=ΣPuΔo/VuLc ≤ 0.05 then Nonsway Frame
Now, Σpu = total factored vertical load of that storey= 2000.0 kip (all columns)
Δo =Relative def. between top & bot.of column= 0.5 in
Vu =Shear force in column = 30 kip
Lc = C/C distance of joints of column in the frame 12 ft
So, Stability Index, Q=ΣPuΔo/VuLc = 0.23 Sway frame (check)

Slenderness Check (Sway Frame)


ACI 10.12.2 (318/318R-128) Criteria klu/r <22
when Ψm = (ΨA + ΨB)/2 < 2 , k = (20 - Ψm)/20 √(1+Ψm)
when Ψm = (ΨA + ΨB)/2 ≥ 2 , k = 0.9√(1+Ψm)
ΨA = At Top of member Column= Σ(EI/L)column / Σ(EI/L)beam
ΨB = At Bot of member Column = Σ(EI/L)column / Σ(EI/L)beam
moment of inertia of beam 0.35 Ig in^4
moment of inertia of column 0.70 Ig in^4
Now
Σ(EI/l)column at Top = 30.00 E in^3
Σ(EI/l)beam at Top = 28.33 E in^3
So, ΨA = 5.58
Again
Σ(EI/l)column at Bot 27.86 E in^3
Σ(EI/l)beam at Bot 28.33 E in^3
So, ΨB = 1.01
Now
Ψm = (ΨA + ΨB)/2 3.29 0
Now, k = 1.864760038182 Don't delete these two cells
Unsupported length ,lu = 132.00 in
Min Radius of Gyration , r = 0.3a 3.60 in
Now, klu/r = 68.37453473333 effect of slenderness must be c
ACI Moment Magnifier Method (For Sway Frame)
The Magnified Sway Moment, δsMs = Ms/(1 -Q)
when δs = 1/(1 -Q) ≤ 1.5
Now, δs = 1/(1 -Q) = 1.30
Another condition, δsMs = Ms/(1 -Pu/(0.75Pc))
Where, Pc = π^2EI/(klu)^2
EI = 0.4EcIg /(1+βd)
Ec = 57000√fc' = 3604996.53 psi
Es = 8Ec = 28839972.26 psi
Now EI = 2002318074.10 in^2
Pc= 300.24 kip
Again δs = 1/(1 -Pu/(0.75Pc))= -1.08879039224
So Magnification facttor of Moment= 1.30
Magnified factored Moment = 520.48192771 kip-in
