Review Module-Reinforced Concrete Design (RCD Columns-USD)

This document provides design guidelines for reinforced concrete columns based on the National Structural Code of the Philippines (NSCP) provisions for ultimate strength design. It discusses requirements for axial load capacity calculations of tied and spiral columns, limits on reinforcement ratios and bar sizes, minimum reinforcement quantities, tie and spiral spacing, and concrete cover. Design examples are given for determining required column dimensions and reinforcement for given load cases.
