CHECKS FOR REINFORCEMENT OF

PEDESTAL FOR LIGHTPOST


Checks of reinforcement for Lightpost pedestal

a) Reinforcement limits

Size of pedestal = 600 x 600 mm


Nos bars = 14
Diameter of bars = 20 mm

Grade of concrete (fc') = 35 Mpa


Grade of steel reinforcement (Fy) = 500 Mpa

Area of reinforcement (As) = 4398.23 mm2


Gross cross section area (Ag) = 360000 mm2

1) As = 0.012 < 0.08 OK 5.7.4.2-1, AASHTO LRFD


Ag

2) As*Fy = 0.175 > 0.135 OK 5.7.4.2-3, AASHTO LRFD


Ag*fc'

b) Development of reinforcement 5.11.2, AASHTO LRFD

Development length ldb (in mm) for No. 36 bar and smaller shall be taken as :

Bar dia (mm) db 20 16


Bar area (mm2) Ab 314.16 201.06

1) .02 Ab*Fy = 531.0 339.9


√fc'
and not less than :

2) .06 db * Fy = 600 480
