A certain R.C short column with 300 mm square cross-section is made of M 20 grade concrete and has 4 numbers - 20 mm diameter, longitudinal bars of Fe 415 grade steel. It is under the action of a concentric axial compressive load. Ignoring the reduction in the area of concrete due to the steel bars, find the ultimate axial load carrying capacity of the column as given by the relevant code.
