Reinforced Concrete design according to ACI 318-19

Development & Splice of Reinforcement

Project :

Concrete Cyl. strength f c` = 40 MPa

Steel Yield stress fy = 420 MPa

Development of Straight bars in tension:

Bar surface condition:
Uncoated or galvanized e = 1
Casting position:
Other bar positions t = 1
Reinforcement grade:
Grade 280 or Grade 420 g = 1
Spacing and cover:
Clear spacing not less than db, clear cover at least db and stirrups throughout ld not less than Code minimum
Development Length, Ld = 32 db for db 12 = 384 mm Clause 25.4.2.1

Lap splice in tension:

As,provided / As,required = <2
Percent of spliced bars = More than 50% Splice type: Class B
Splice Length, Lst = 42 db for db 12 = 504 mm Clause 25.5.2.1

Development of Straight bars in compression:

Confinement condition:
Other cases
T r = 1
Development Length, Ldc = 19 db for db 12 = 228 mm Clause 25.4.9.1

Lap splice in compression:

Splice Length, Lsc = 30 db for db 12 = 360 mm Clause 25.5.5.1
