    1) Constructing RCC columns involves four main stages: laying out the column locations, installing reinforcement according to structural drawings, building column formwork, and pouring concrete. 2) Column layout involves marking column locations in the field based on measurements from grid lines shown in drawings. 3) Reinforcement installation places steel bars according to specifications giving diameter, number, and spacing of vertical and tie bars. 4) Formwork is typically built to the full required height but concrete is poured in lifts of 5 feet or less to avoid segregation issues during placement.
