Hey guys,
Im trying to perform a hand check for the design of the column..Software used is STAAD for analysis.At one location,Column level is as follows,
1)foundation to tie beam(about 1.6 m high).Fy=10 kN(I ASSUMED THIS IS THE AXIAL LOAD ACTING)
2)Tie beam level to 2nd floor ,Fy=23 KN
3)2nd floor to roof level..FY=14KN..
A TOTAL OF 10+23+14=47 KN..but the reaction(R = around 300kn) to the support doesnt add up to those of column axial load..
Can somebody clarify this?,,and does Fy = to axial load or should be the reaction coming from the beam that this column supposed to be supporting..someone pls enligthened me...thanks in advance
