The pitch of transverse reinforcement of a column is taken as the minimum value of three parameters.
These parameters are smallest lateral dimension of the compression member, 48 times the diameter of transverse reinforcement and 16 times the least diameter of the column’s longitudinal reinforcement.
Transverse reinforcement in a reinforced concrete column helps in the transfer of shear stress and tensile stress, as well as prevent buckling of longitudinal bars.
