Pedestal design with Moment and Axial Loading
Pedestal design with Moment and Axial Loading
(OP)
May i ask, in various textbooks Design of pedestal with axial loading is always discussed. How about for pedestals with axial and moment, where moment is much larger than axial load? I have read that it should be designed as beam for tension. Can you suggest reference for this?
Thanks!

I just don’t understand why and how so many OP’ers. assume we all know exactly what problem they are dealing with, and then give the briefest of problem descriptions, as if they were too busy to take the time to define their problem. The pedestal for a bowling trophy is different than the pedestal for a 100ton crane, and we don’t know which you are talking about.

It's "standard" in my company to use 0.5% (not 1%) as minimum rebar if it's pedestal.
