RULES FOR DETAILING
The horizontal distance between two parallel
bars
shall be usually not less than the
following:
1) diameter of the bar, if the diameters are equal;
2) diameter of the larger bar, if the diameters
are unequal; and
3) 5 mm more than the nominal maximum
size of coarse aggregate.

Detailing of Steel in Footings
Footings
The function of a footing or a foundation is to transmit the load
form the structure to the underlying soil.
The choice of suitable type of footing depends on the depth at
which the bearing strata lies, the soil condition and the type of
superstructure.
Types of footing
Following are the different types of footing used for concrete
structure
• Isolated footing
• Combined footings
• Strap footing
• Mat or raft foundation
• Pile foundation
Isolated footings
• Isolated footings are provided under each column and may be
square, rectangular, or circular in plan. Footing may be flat or
tapered.
Combined footings

RECTANGULAR AND TRAPEZOIDAL TYPES
Strap footing
• Strap footing is one of the types of combined types of
combined. It consists of an isolated footing of two columns
connected by a beam called strap beam. The strap beam does
not remain in contact with the soil and thus does not transfer
any load to the soil. This is provided when one of the columns
is on the property line.

STRAP FOOTING
Mat foundation
• The is provided when the soil is having very
low bearing capacity and or when columns
loads are heavy, the required footing area
becomes very large and uneconomical.

Bar Bending Schedule
Purpose of preparing BBS
• To provide cut-lengths for the process of
cutting and bending of bars
• To calculate the quantity of steel required
• To maintain a track record of steel
consumption in a project
BBS Should Include
(From SP 34)
Format for BBS
NOTE:
1. Total length of the bar should include all hooks, bends and lap
lengths
2. Weight per unit length can be approximately calculated as
d2/162
3. Hook length may be taken as 8d to 10d and lap length shall be
equal to one development length
4. The length of crank for bent up bars can be taken as 0.42 D
(where D is the effective depth of bend)
5. The number bars in slab can be computed by dividing the total
length of the slab (excluding cover) by the spacing of bars in
the appropriate direction
