Hi all,

could anybody indicate technical references for the structural design of sockets for precast columns (US)?

The best would be to find the refs after which a spreadsheet I was provided was made.
A couple of formula used:
Kn=(Mu/phi)/(b1*(d_eff)^2)
rho=0.85*fc/fy*(1-(1-2*Kn/0.85fc)^0.5)

Regards.
