ABSTRACT

Reinforced concrete columns are structural members used to carry compressive loads. Column planning is important, considering that the column is the main structural element supporting the loads on a building. Column planning is generally used in moment and axial force interaction diagrams for a certain reinforcement ratio. Although there is currently much software available, Interaction diagrams made in this paper can be said to be a simple way of column planning. The method used in this paper is a numerical calculation method with the help of Ms Excel. This paper aims to optimize the planning of reinforced concrete columns using Mn and Pn interaction diagrams. Furthermore, the optimization results of the column planning interaction diagram have been obtained. A reinforcement ratio of 2% is a better result to apply.

Keywords: column, interaction diagram, reinforcement ratio.
