what is the required minimum spacing of bundled reinforcing bars for beams?
 
Sort by date Sort by votes
Between the bundled bars laterally within the beam, between the bundled bars themselves or to the face of the beam?

Between the bars, not less than:

1. the equivalent diameter of the combined bars; or

2. 1.33 times the maximum aggregate size; or

3. 1"

Whichever is greater.

Per table "Reinforcement 12", page 151 in the 1971 ACI Design Handbook.
