Abstract:
Decisions made during the design of a reinforced concrete building can have major impacts on the project cost, schedule, change orders, number of requests for information, and overall constructibility. This Detailing Corner discusses various aspects of reinforced concrete column design and construction, including lap splicing of the longitudinal bars, placement of the column dowels, and offset bends.
