-Required Depth of Embedment of Anchorage Bars in Tension

Total Embedment Depth of Anchorage Reinforcement, l e = ldh + ld
1) Development length, l dh ACI 18.8.5.1

a) l dh = 463.64 mm
b) l dh = 8*db = 256 mm
c) l dh = 150 mm
Use, l dh = 464 mm < h'ef OK
2) Development length, l d ACI 18.8.5.1
a) l d = 1,159 mm
b) l d = 1,507 mm
