    The document provides steps to calculate reinforcement for a circular slab. It includes: 1) Calculating the number and length (L) of reinforcement bars based on the slab diameter, clear cover, and bar spacing. 2) Using Pythagoras' theorem to calculate L2, L3, L4, etc. lengths for the main reinforcement bars. 3) Doubling the lengths for the second half of bars and adding the center bar length to get the total main bar reinforcement. 4) Repeating for distribution bars and providing a bar bending schedule with bar lengths and diameters.

    Circular Slab Reinforcement Detailing

    Here, Where L1 = Diameter of the Circular Slab Reinforcement

    To find L2, we have to use Pythagoras theorem,

    L2 = √(R2 – h12) X 2

    The same goes to L3 = √(R2 – h22) X 2

    L4 = √(R2 – h32) X 2

    And so on..

    Where L is the length of the reinforcement bar,

    R – Radius of the circular slab reinforcement ( Excluding clear cover on both sides)

    H – Distance between the bar to the main bar

    Note – We need to calculate the Typical L’s for the 1st half only, for the 2nd half we will multiply it by 2
    excluding the main bar.

    Circular Slab Reinforcement Calculation


    Assume We need to calculate the reinforcement for a circular slab of 2 Metre diameter with 12 mm
    main rod and 10 mm distribution rod @ spacing 200 mm and clear cover as 25 mm.

    First of all, you have to calculate the number of rods that means, how many L’s we need to calculate.

    That’s Simple,

    Take the diameter of the circular reinforcement = Diameter of circular slab – Clear Cover on Both Sides

                                                                                        = 2000 mm – 25 mm – 25 mm = 1950 mm

    We know, L = 1950 mm or 1.95 metre

    R = L/2 = 1.95 m /2 = 0.975 m

    Number of L’s = Radius of the circular reinforcement / Centre to centre distance  = 0.975 / 0.200 = 4.87
    No’s

    Number of rod = 5 – centre rod (since centre rod will be only one)

                              =  4 X 2 (2nd half) = 8 No’s

    Now we need to calculate 8 number of main rods and 8 numbers of distribution rods. Refer the picture
    As we know, L1 = Diameter of the main bar = 1.95 m

    the formula for L2 = √(R2 – h12) X 2 = √(0.975)2 – (0.2)2 X 2 = 1.87 m

    L3 = √(R2 – h22) X 2 = √(0.975)2 – (0.4)2 X 2 = 1.63 m

    L4 = √(R2 – h32) X 2 = √(0.975)2 – (0.6)2 X 2 =  1.23 m

    L5 = √(R2 – h42) X 2 = √(0.975)2 – (0.8)2 X 2 =  0.67 m

    Reinforcement for 1st half L = L2+L3+L4 = 1.87 m + 1.63 m +1.23 m +0.67 m = 5.4 m

    Reinforcement for 2nd half = ( 1st Half X 2 ) = 5.4 m X 2 = 10.8 m

    Total Main rod Reinforcement = 1st half + 2nd half + Centre Rod (L1) = 10.8 m + 1.95 m = 12.75 m

    So now we have the reinforcement details for the main distribution.

    Again we need to multiply it by 2 for the distribution rods.
