The possibility of a floating column or a stub column in a building is discussed widely by structural engineers.
How many floating can be there in a building? Is floating column allowed?
Floating columns are many times needed in a Building.
Many times, due to parking in the basement or stilt and since the columns coming in the drive way and due to many other architectural and functional restrictions, columns cannot be taken through the entire floors of the building. Columns may have to shift or offset in buildings in upper levels. This is undesirable because the lateral strength of the building is compromised.
There is no hard and fast rule for the number of floating columns but then it shall not be part of the lateral load resisting system. Floating columns shall take only gravity load.
In the ETABS analysis model, the moments shall be released and the floating column shall be relieved from all lateral forces.
IS 1893 2016 allows a stub column or a floating column if and only if the above condition is satisfied.
The ductile detailing code, IS 13920 mandates non linear analysis if there are floating columns in a building
