A concrete building has 12 stories, each story is 3.2 m high. The facade column has 400 kN axial load per floor and a cross sectional area of 300mm×700mm. Calculate the shortening of the column at the ground floor level and the sixth floor when using concrete f'c= 25 N/mm² and 40 N/mm². Explain if there will be any effect on the facade.
