Reinforcement Detailing

A practical reference for reinforced-concrete detailing, covering development length, anchorage, shear reinforcement, splicing, lap lengths, nominal cover, beam reinforcement, column dimensions, transverse ties and special confinement. It helps civil engineers, supervisors, detailers and students interpret drawings, apply the relevant IS provisions, and achieve safe, durable structural construction on site.
