Steel Column Axial Capacity
Steel IS 800:2007~3 min
Check axial load capacity of a steel column as per IS 800:2007 (Limit State Method).
Formula
Pd = Ae × fcd (Design compressive stress)
Input Parameters
Results
Slenderness Ratio (KL/r)
70.0
Design Compressive Stress
129.0MPa
Design Axial Capacity
838.5kN
Step-by-Step Method
- 1Calculate slenderness ratio λ = KL/r.
- 2Determine design compressive stress fcd from IS 800 Table 9.
- 3Design capacity Pd = Ae × fcd.
Engineering Notes
- •Maximum slenderness ratio for columns = 180 (IS 800 Cl. 7.2.2).
- •γm0 = 1.10 for IS 800 LSM.
