11/23/2017 ACI 318-11: Development length for reinforcement - RCSolver
The design is based on the reinforcement a aining the yield stress, so the reinforcement must be properly bonded
to the concrete for a nite length in order not to slip. This sucient length to anchor bars near the end of
connec ons is referred to as the development length, ld. The development length equa on according to ACI 318 is
presented here:
where:
t, Modier for reinforcement loca on , 1.3 for top bars, 1.0 for other bars
where:
Atr = total cross sec onal area of all transverse reinforcement which is within the spacing, s, and which crosses the
poten al plane of spli ng through the reinforcement being developed.
n = number of longitudinal bars being developed along the plane of spli ng.
