Development Length

This document discusses design considerations for bond and anchorage in reinforced concrete. It defines bond as the adhesion between concrete and steel that allows them to act together without slip. Anchorage bond refers to the average stress along the anchorage length of reinforcing bars. Development length is the length needed on either side of maximum tension/compression points for the average bond stress to not be exceeded. The document provides clauses from IS 456:2000 regarding hooks, bends, shear reinforcement anchorage, column/footing reinforcement, bundling bars, splicing, and tension bar curtailment.

Design for bond and anchorage

BOND
¾ The term Bond in reinforced concrete design refers to the
adhesion or the shear stress that occurs between the
concrete and steel in a loaded member.
member

¾ It is the bond between steel and concrete that enables the


two materials to act together without slip.

¾ The assumption that in a RCC beam plane sections remain


plane even after bending will be valid only if there is perfect
bond or no slip between concrete and steel.
