Pillar rebar arrangement


1) Indication of pillar(C)
Main bar drawing - It indicates the length of span by the criterion of pillar and wall,
etc. and indicates the position of pillar & wall.

<Example>
C - pillar
BC1 - #1 underground pillar
1C1 - #1 first-story pillar

500 500 - actual size of concrete


8-HD19 - 8pcs of HD19mm rebar
D10 @250 - install per 250mm of HOOP distance
D10 @250 - install per 250mm of DIA HOOP distance

Be careful of this point if there are rebar quantity's differences according to pillar
assembly x0, x1 or y0,y1 direction.
2) Indication of floor

2SL(upper concrete)

2FL(upper part’s closing condition)

1) GL - GROUND LEVEL
2) FL - FLOOR LEVEL
Height of floor (ground level per floor)
3) SL - SLAB LEVEL
(upper part of structure per floor)
3) Sequence of pillar assembling

< Stand the same to diagonal direction if each side is even. >

< Stand the same to all directions if each side is odd. >

< Stand the same to one direction if each side is even & odd. >
4) Tying method of pillar
Even the tiny little requirement for the construction should be taken into
consideration.
Keep the pillar reinforcements vertically and splice the bars 3 times.
Upper and lower parts of the reinforcements should be cross-tied.

When tying the corner of tie hoop, it is better to wind the tying wires changing
directions up and down to let it not to be hung down.
It is also recommended that worker wind the tying wires at least one time in
advance to hold the main bar to its original position.

Tie bar for assisting pillar should be at every distance to install tie hoop .

Diamond type General type


Bind the tie hoops clockwise(as shown below) and spacing at the top and bottom
levels of vertical reinforcement should be within of hoop spacing beginning at
50mm from the bottom of the floor.

5) Position of pillar tying

In pillar bar slice, follow the instructions on drawings in order to splice them
adequately, that is, if not, the length of reinforcement is not fit for column with the
reason that usual 8,000mm bar is cut into two 4,000mm bars to splice.

[Note]
It is desirable that reinforcing bar should be in a variety of sizes, but 8m bar is usually
available in the market.
In other words, if you need a bar other than 8m in size, you should give a customer-
order for it, which does not go well with economical strategy.
Reinforcing bars from D10~D16 do not have much problem in using them as
reinforcement for slabs or bearing walls. We have some advantages here.
Bar loss and the frequency of splice will be decreased if using bars of 8m ~ 12m
length by mixing.

6) Cross assembling of pillar and beam(only for outer pillar)


Don't fill up tie hoop to assemble beam the crossed part of pillar & beam.
In this case , there are difficulty in carrying out the construction but you must fill
up tie hoop of outside.
Especially, you should prevent from the protruded main bar by filling up tie hoop
on outer pillar and edge pillar.

rebar arrangement of construction
In case over 600mm of pillar size , you should fill up support tie hoop by shop
drawing.
You should get rid of support tie hoop in order to worker's entrance to pillar tube
to connect #8 wire for working of pillar outer appearance.
After this, the worker should not forget to bind the assist wire before he gets out.

In case the splice length for pillar splice is shorter than required, be sure to destroy
the concrete to maintain splice length but it is impossible possibility to execute
actually.
Therefore, you should check the availability of welding splice, compressed splice,
mechanical splice.
7) Correction of pillar
Bend the bar gently at a very low level
Pillar correction angle should not exceed of overall angle
Heat should not be added to correct the main bar because it makes the strength of
rebar, just destroy the part that needs correction and bend it of overall angle.
Destroy the part that needs correction and modify it.
These are 2 cases of correction depending on correction angle.

When the correction grade is low

If corrected angle is about ,


insert the bar into pillar after bending.

Bending after concrete work.

When the correction grade is higher than , change the bending angle to
and cover the pillar as thin as possible.
Increase to minimum pillar thickness

Pillar rebar protruded to outside.


8) Detailed drawing of pillar and beam rahmen(arrangement)
Don't apply compression splice length except pure compression material.
Regarding bending material , apply B class splice for tying near max. stress point
and apply A class splice for the rest block.

When the beam is arranged, the bottom bar should be all tied,
and the stirrup upper binding supported by spacer should be
tied 2,3 times tightly.
