So you have given reinforcement detailing of a slab.
Now you have to give instructions to the bar benders about cutting length of the steel
bar according to the slab dimensions.
If it is a small construction, you can hand over the detailing to the bar benders they
will take care of cutting length. However, that must not be perfect. They actually don’t
give importance to the bends and cranks.
Downloa
They may give some extra inches to the bars for the bends. But it’s not the correct
way.

Specification
Diameter of the Bar = 12 mm
Testing Procedure
Clear Cover = 25 mm
Clear Span (i.e “L”) = 6000 (Length of the slab)
Slab Thickness = 150 mm
Ld = 40d (Development Length). We know the difference between lap length and
development length.
Calculation
Therefore,

Length = Clear Span of Slab + (2 X Ld) +(2 x 0.42D) – (1d x 4) – (2d x 2)

In the
 above formula, we have all the value, (except D)
Ld – Development Length which is equal to 40d
d – Diameter of Bar
So D = height of the bend bar (refer the image)
“D” = Slab Thickness – (2 x clear cover) – (diameter of bar)
= 150 – (2 x 25) – 12 = 88 mm
“D” = 88 mm
Now we know the “D” value which is the clear height of the bar (refer the image).
In order to find the inclined bar length using (Trignometry Function)
Inclined length = d/(sin 45°) – d / (tan 45°) = (d/0.7071) – (d/1)= (1d –

0.7071d)/0.7071= 0.42 D
we are providing four 45°bends at inner side (1,2,3 & 4) and two 90° bends ( a,b ).
45° = 1d ; 90° = 2d
Coming back to the formula,
Cutting Length = Clear Span of Slab + (2 X Ld) +(2 x 0.42D) – (1d x 4) – (2d x 2)
= 6000 mm + ( 2 x 40 x 12) + (2 x 0.42 x 88) – (1x12x4) – (2x12x2)
Cutting Length = 6938 mm or 6.94 m
So far the above dimensions, you need to cut the main bars in 6.94 m length.
Hope this helps. Happy Learning
