Continuous slab rebar question in field.
Continuous slab rebar question in field.
(OP)
Hello guys, I have a simple question for field engineers:
How does concrete people accomplish slab saw cutting in field (such as 10'x10' slab saw cutting specified on drawing)? Do they leave rebar in slab continuous, or the rebar will actually become discontinuous?
We hope the rebar continuous, but just would like to make sure if it is really the case in field.
Many Thanks.

I am talking about a foundation slab of cause. Sorry about not clearly expressed.

csd72 is probably alluding to the fact that elevated slabs should not be saw cut.

With small ratios of reinforcing, if sawcutting is done on time, there is no need to discontinue half the bars.
