Division 3-B Conc. Reinf. <br />~'PLACING REINFORCING: All reinforcing shall be free from <br />rust, or any coating which may reduce bond and of size and <br />location shown. Steel for beam reinforcinq shall be tied <br />at all intersections and supported with hangers during the <br />placing of concrete. All reinforcing shall be supported on.., <br />chairs, spacers, and ties to support steel in the location <br />shown on plans and to comply with the recommendations of <br />the Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute. Clear minimum <br />coverage of concrete over reinforcing bars shall be as <br />follows: <br />Formed concrete against earth---------------- 2" <br />Beams to ties/stirrups----------------------- 1 4" <br />Top and bottom of slabs---------------------- 3/4" <br />In places where beams intersect to form an "L" or "T" the <br />reinforcing steel shall extend to the far side of the <br />intersected beam. In addition, provide an "L" shaped bar <br />for each beam bar; each leg, being 30 bar diameters long <br />and same size as beam bar. Wire securely to adjacent steel <br />~ as shown and detailed. Unless otherwise shown, continuous <br />top steel shall be spliced at midspan, and continuous <br />bottom steel shall be spliced over piers, and shal'1 lap 40 <br />bar diameter. Where reinforced concrete beams "dead end" <br />or terminate, the top and bottom reinforcing steel shall <br />hook. <br />WIRE MESH: Lap all wire mesh 6" each way and tie wire 24" <br />o.c. at lap. Mesh shall be in top half of slab, extend to <br />2" of edge of slab and tie to slab edge bar. <br />LAPS IN REINFORCING: All floor slab rods shall lap 30 bar <br />diameters minimum. All dowels and tie bars shall lap 30 <br />bar diameter into each pour. All beam steel shall lap 40 <br />bar diameters. NOTE: 30 bar diameter laps are as follows: <br />No. 3 Rod 12", <br />No. 9 Rod 15", <br />No. 5 Rod 19", <br />No. 6 Rod 23" <br />40 bar diameter laps are as follows: <br />No. 4 Rod 20", <br />No. 5 Rod 25", <br />- No. 6 Rod 30". <br />18 <br />
