Assumptions:
(1) The general conditions of clause 3.8.1 are applicable.
(2) The specified design axial loads include
the self-weight of the column.
(3) The design axial loads are taken constant
over the height of the column.

Design approach:

-1560.0

The column is designed using an iterative procedure:

(1) An area of reinforcement is chosen.
(2) The column design charts are constructed.
(3) The corresponding slenderness moments are calculated.
(4) The design axis and design ultimate moment are determined .
(5) The design axial force and moment capacity is checked on
the relevant design chart.
(6) The safety factor is calculated for this load case.
(7) The procedure is repeated for each load case.
(8) The critical load case is identified as the case yielding the lowest
safety factor about the design axis

For bending about the weakest axis:

Weakest axis lies at an angle of -88.62 to the X-X axis
Overall dimension perpendicular to weakest axis h-dc = 2187mm
Balanced neutral axis depth, xb = ec/(ec+es) (h-dc) =1415.8 mm
