Compute y. The interaction diagrams in Appendix A are each drawn for a particular value of the ratio, y, of the distance between the centers of the outside layers of bars to the overall depth of the column. To estimate y, assume that the centroid of the longitudinal bars is located 2.5 in. from the edge of the column, as was done in Chapters 4 and 5 for beam sections with nominal 1.5-in. cover. 16 - 2(2.5) = 0.69 16
