and 100 % lapped bars

Cover = Nominal cover (+ diameter of outer layer bar for 2nd layer design rebar)

Lengths rounded up to nearest 10mm

Note: all anchorages and laps are based on a fully stressed bar at 500/1.15=435N/mm2.
Where the "ULS" design stress in the bar is less than 435 , the values can be factored by σsd/435
