Reinforced Concrete
Columns
At the core of Reinforced Concrete Columns is In a reinforced concrete structure, columns must be designed to successfully transfer loads from the superstructure beams and floor slabs to the foundation. The size of the columns will depend on load calculations, which dictate the required amount of steel and grade of concrete.
The combination of concrete and an embedded steel reinforcement frame provides strength and reliable force transfer.
Used in building and structure frames where loads from upper structures must be transferred to the foundation.
