Comment: Also – please note that the Enterprise projects typically present the tie spacing at the top

of the
pier as 3” to the top tie and 2” to the next tie as shown. Please present the ties with these dimensions
going forward.

This (tie or transverse reinforcement) acts as a shear reinforcement. When anchor bolts are subjected to
shear , then these closely spaced ties act as shear reinforcement in preventing cracks & and its
propagation.
