1 RCC work 1:2:4 1 8.60 0.40 0.75 2.58
excluding steel and its
bending but including,
centering and shuttering
and binding of steel (vol.
of cement concrete)
2 Steel reinforcing bars
including bending (HYSD
bars)
Main bars:- L=860-2 end covers+2 hooks
i) 22 mm Dia. straight 4 8.92 - 2.98kg/m 106.33kg = 860-(2x4cm)+(18x2.2cm)
bars @ 2.98kg/m
=891.6=892cm=8.92m
For two hooks length take
18xdiameter of bar
[Area x density of steel x1000
= πx(0.022)2/4 x7.85x1000]
= 2.98k/m
ii) 20 mm dia. bent up 4 9.53 - 2.47kg/m 94.16kg For 450 bent up at both ends
bars @ 2.47kg/m add one depth in between
bars
L = 860-2 end covers +2
hooks+one depth
L=860-(2x4cm)+(18x2)+65cm
