A Column Tie is a reinforcing bar or steel element encircling the vertical reinforcement bars in a concrete column. It is designed to hold the main reinforcing bars in place, provide lateral support, and enhance the column’s resistance to buckling and shear forces. Column ties are crucial for maintaining the structural integrity and stability of columns in concrete construction.
