I have a 24" diameter drilled pier. It is 6" to 1' above grade and 3' below grade. I'm using #6 verticals and #4 circular ties to confine it.
Question:
Do the #4 ties require the same lap calculation as a straight bar? Is it considered confined because it is circular? Or is it unconfined because it *IS* the confining element? OR???
What is the lap requirement for it?
