The document discusses dimensional requirements and tolerances for shaped steel reinforcement bars. It specifies that minimum radius and end projection dimensions from Table 2 apply to all shapes. Dimensional tolerances are given and out-of-tolerance shapes should be drawn and coded as 99. Bends should have a minimum straight length of 4 bar diameters between them. Figures 4-6 illustrate dimensioning of acute angles, cranked bars, and bars with multiple bends.

The values for minimum radius and end projection, r and P respectively, as specified in Table 2, shall apply to all
shape codes (see 7.6).
The dimensions in parentheses are the free dimensions. If a shape given in this table is required but a different dimension is to allow for the possible deviations, the shape shall be drawn out and given the shape code 99 and the free dimension shall be indicated in parentheses.The length of straight between two bends shall be at least 4d, see Figure 6. Figure 4, Figure 5 and Figure 6 should be used in the interpretation of ending dimensions. Note 1 The length equations for shape codes 14, 15, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36 and 46 are approximate and where the bend angle is greater than 45, the length should be calculated more accurately allowing for the difference between the specified overall dimensions and the true length measured along the central axis of the bar. When the bending angles approach 90, it is preferable to specify shape code 99 with a fully dimensioned sketch. Note 2 Five bends or more might be impractical within permitted tolerances. Note 3 For shapes with straight and curved lengths (e.g. shape codes 12 13, 22, 33 and 47) the largest practical mandrel size for the production of a continuous curve is 400 mm. See also Clause 10. Note 4 Stock lengths are available in a limited numer of lengths (e.g. 6m, 12m). Dimension A for shape code 01 should be regarded as indicative and used for the purpose of calculating total length. Actual delivery lengths should be by agreement with supplier.

Figure 4 Dimensioning of an acute angle
8.6 If the angle between two portions of the shape meeting at a bend is not a right angle, it shall be defined by co-ordinates and not by degress of arcs or radians. 8.7 When dimensioning an acute angle the tangential lines shown in Figure 4 shall be used.
Figure 5 Dimensioning of cranked bars
8.8 Apart from shape code 98, bars bent in two planes shall be sketched isometrically or shown in two elevations, using first angle projection. The words bent in two planes or isometric sketch shall appear on the schedule adjacent to the sketch. 8.9 The overall offset dimension of a crank shall be not less than twice the size of the bar. The angled length (see Figure 5) shall be not less than: a) 10d for bars not exceeding a nominal size of 16mm b) 13d for nominal sizes greater than 16mm Figure 6 Example of bar with more than one bend 8.10 For all shapes with two or more bends in the same or opposite directions (whether in the same plane or not), the overall dimension given on the schedule shall always include a minimum straight of 4d between the curved portion of the bends, as shown in Figure 6. The value of x in Figure 6 shall be not less than the following: a) 10d for bars not exceeding a nominal size of 16mm b) 13d for nominal sizes greater than 16mm NOTE: The minimum values of x are expressed in terms of the nominal size of the reinforcement. In practice, rolling and bending tolerances, and the fact that the circumscribing diameter of deformed reinforcement may be up to 10% greater than the nominal size, should be considered.
