Lateral Restrraint Force in Concrete Columns
Lateral Restrraint Force in Concrete Columns
(OP)
I know a general rule is that a laterally restraining member must be able to carry 2% of the axial load in the column, but in British Standards this is only mentioned in the steel code. It seems to also be the case in American Standards. What if you want to restrain a concrete column with a steel member. Is there any code that gives minimum force that a member bracing a concrete column must be able to carry and do the stiffness requirements applying to steel also apply to concrete?
