Requirements Of Good Detailing

Should be simple for fabrication and placing

Check to space for crack control – maximum spacing

Minimum spacing for concrete placing

Check for splicing requirements and development length

Special care for a section of varying depth and sloped slabs

Care for corner joints, beam-column junction, openings etc.

Detailing for gravity loads is different from the lateral loads especially for the seismic force.

Apart from the detailing for the above there is a different detailing required for the rehabilitation and strengthening of damaged structures.

Detailing codes SP16 and IS456-2000.

EQ code is 13920 as required for seismic forces.
