Abstract:
A computer program is used to obtain design tables for rectangular reinforced concrete columns subjected to axial load and biaxial bending. The user has the option of condensing the results using Bresler's load contour method. Tables constructed from the condensed results provide a design tool that is both accurate and easy to use.
