Would this reinforcement splice work ?
Would this reinforcement splice work ?
(OP)
Hello guys,
I'm in a situation where, for a splice length, we can't use the full development length of the rebar.
Does the following attached detail work in such situation?
IMHO, conceptually it works great, but I don't see it covered in ACI 318 so maybe I'm missing something.
What are your thoughts?

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.

A 180 hook would also work. A strut and tie model seems the way to justify it.
I still wonder why this is not covered somewhere prescriptively, it doesn't seem like a extremely rare situation.
