The minimum and maximum spacing reinforcement in concrete structural members such as beams and slabs are required as per standard codes. The minimum reinforcement spacing is based on maximum size of aggregates, so that concrete can be placed and compacted ...

Methods of Reinforcement Quantity Estimation in Concrete Structure
Estimation of steel reinforcement quantity is required for calculating cost of RCC structure along with other building materials as per construction drawing.
Bar Bending Schedule for Reinforced Concrete Beam
Bar bending schedule provides the reinforcement calculation for reinforced concrete beam. It provides details of reinforcement cutting length, type of bends and bend length. We will take one example for reinforcement quantity calculations for a concrete beam. Bar Bending Schedule ...
Requirement for Detailing of Reinforcements in Concrete Structures
Reinforced concrete is a composite material, hence a proper bond between the two materials – concrete and reinforcement is the first requirement. A minimum length of reinforcing bar is needed to develop the full bond strength between concrete and steel. ...
Methods of Splicing Reinforced Bars
Most of the reinforced concrete structures won’t be provided with full length reinforced bars. The manufacture and transportation of long bars are difficult, which limit the use of full length reinforced bars. The method used to join the reinforcement bars, ...
Curtailment of Reinforcement in Concrete Beams and Slabs
To economize the design of a flexural member, the tensile bars are curtailed at the section beyond which it is no longer required to resist flexure(bending) given that the remaining reinforcement of the flexural member will be able to resist ...
REINFORCEMENT CUTOFFS AND BEND POINTS
Reinforcement Bar Cutoffs and Bend Points It is common practice to cut or bend main reinforcement in beams and slabs where it is no longer required. But tensile steel should never be discontinued exactly at the theoretical cutoff or bend ...
Reinforcement Detailing of Isolated Footing
Reinforcement detailing of footing is as much important as site investigation for the structural design of footing. A good detailing reflects the design requirement of the footing for structural stability. A good detailing of reinforcement covers topics like cover to ...
