This document summarizes the design of a ground floor column. Key parameters and loads are given. Calculations are shown to check the column's capacity for axial load (Pu) and bending moment (Mu). The required cross-sectional area (As) and reinforcement are determined. Checks are made to ensure the column's nominal axial capacity (Pn) and moment capacity exceed the factored loads. An 8-bar reinforcement cage with 10mm ties at 300mm spacing is selected.
