What is Column?
Column:
➢ A column can be defined as a vertical structural member designed to transmit a
compressive load.
➢ A column transmits the load from ceiling/roof slab and beam, including its own
weight to the foundation.
Types of Column:
Depending upon the type of reinforcement used,
reinforced columns are classified into following
types:-
1. Tied Column
2. Spiral Column and
3. Composite Column
Tied Column:
When the main longitudinal bars of the column
are confined within closely spaced lateral ties, it
is called as tied column.
Spiral Column:
When the main longitudinal bars of the column
are enclosed with in closely spaced and
continuously wound spiral reinforcement, it is
called as a spiral column.
Composite Column:
When the longitudinal reinforcement is in the
form of structural steel section or pipe with or
without longitudinal bars, it is called as a
composite column.
