Design approach:
The column is designed using an iterative procedure:
(1) The column design charts are constructed.
(2) An area steel is chosen.
(3) The corresponding slenderness moments are calculated.
(4) The design axis and design ultimate moment is determined .
(5) The steel required for the design axial force and moment is read from
the relevant design chart.
(6) The procedure is repeated until the convergence of the area steel
about the design axis.
(7) The area steel perpendicular to the design axis is read from the relevant
design chart.
Check column slenderness:

End fixity and bracing for bending about the X-X axis:
At the top end: Condition 2 (partially fixed).
At the bottom end: Condition 3 (pinned).
The column is braced.
\ x = 0.95

Minimum Moments for Design:

Check for mininum eccentricity:
For bi-axial bending, it is only necessary to ensure that the eccentricity
exceeds the minimum about one axis at a time.
3.8.2.4
For the worst effect, apply the minimum eccentricity about the minor axis:
emin = 0.05 . d
= 0.05 .3
= 0.0150 m
Mmin = emin. N
= .015 20
= 0.3000 kNm
Check if the column is slender:
3.8.1.3
lx = 19.0 > 15
ly = 19.0 > 15
\ The column is slender.
Check slenderness limit:
3.8.1.7
Lo = 6.000 m < 60dia' = 18.000 m

\ Slenderness limit not exceeded.
Initial moments:
The initial end moments about the X-X axis:
M1 = Smaller initial end moment = 0.0 kNm
M2 = Larger initial end moment = 10.0 kNm
The initial moment near mid-height of the column :
Mi = - 0.4 . M1 + 0.6 . M2
= - 0.4 0 + 0.6 10
= 6.000 kNm
Mi2 = 0.4 . M2
= 0.4 10
= 4.000 kNm
