contractor wants to use 8" block an
(OP)
contractor wants to use 8" block and no bigger than #5 bars. as opposed to pilastering,butressing, etc..., I cant figure what would be wrong with bundling (2) #5 bars for the verticals, or (2),then (1) every other course staggered? thoughts? ready set go...
(edit- for clarity at request)
retaining wall pushing over the limits of what #5 bars on 8" centers can do in a block cmu retaining wall. how about (2) #5 at 8" o.c. vertical, a two bundle for the stem steel?

Try again explaining what you had wanted, what he wants, what your concerns are, what does the structure in question need to do. We aren't standing at your desk looking at the pictures/drawings with you. We need you to paint a full picture.

And why, exactly, did you put a masonry retaining wall question in the wood design forum?
