Bar Bending Schedule For Pile Foundation With Calculations
Bar Bending Schedule For Pile Foundation With Calculations
(https://theconstructor.org/)
To clearly understand the bar bending schedule of a pile foundation, it is necessary to be familiar about the typical
reinforcement details of a pile foundation. Pile foundation is a common type of deep foundation, used for
supporting heavy loaded structures when the site under consideration have a very weak soil that is compressible
in nature.

The whole arrangement is clearly understood from the figure-2. The pile cage has vertical reinforcement held
together by outer and inner rings. The Reinforcement in pile construction include:
1. Vertical Reinforcement
The above details are mentioned in the figure-3 below. The Outer rings are provided as helical rings and the inner
is circular or spiral ties.

The development length ‘Ld’ is provided outside of the column piercing into the pile cap. The anchorage length to
the recommended amount is provided to the bottom of the column as shown in figure-2.
3. Diameter of:
1. Vertical Reinforcement = 20mm – 12nos
In the case of bar bending schedule of a column or a pile, there comes need for lapping the rods so that the
length of pile (20m) is attained. Hence, a lapping length equal to 5Dd is provided in extra. Therefore,
Total Cutting Length for Vertical Reinforcement = Anchorage Length at the bottom of the pile + the
height of the pile + development length (40d) + Lap length (50d) – clear cover provided at the
bottom.
i.e. Lv = 300 + 20000 + 40d +50d -75 = 300 + 20000+ (40 x 12) + (50 x 12) – 75
Note: During tying the bar, it is recommended to tie at the middle, as tying at the ends of the bars will be
subjected to higher stress values.
Here, we have to determine the length of each inner ring along with their numbers arranged.
= [20000/2000] +1 = 11 No’s
The circumference of the ring gives the length of each ring. For this the radius of the ring has to be determined.
Given the radius of the pile, the clear cover, outer ring radius:

The radius of the ring = [Radius of the pile – clear cover – diameter: of outer ring – diameter: of
vertical reinforcement:]/2
For every specification of outer helical ring, the radius of the same have to be determined.
