Beam reinforcement (63)

Beam reinforcement (63) creates reinforcement for a concrete beam.

Bars created

  • Longitudinal main bars

  • Corner and side bars

  • Main stirrups

  • Stirrups for one or two ledges

Use for

Situation

More information

Rectangular beams

L-shaped beams (RCL profiles)

RCX profiles

Inverted T-beams (RCDL profiles)

Before you start

  • Create the concrete beam.

  • Calculate the required area of reinforcement.

Selection order

  1. Select the concrete beam.

    The reinforcement is created automatically when you select the beam.

Parameters tab

Use the Parameters tab to define the concrete cover thickness, number, size, and location of the bars, and stirrup size.

Description

1

Cover thickness

2

Distance between bars

3

Main stirrup size

4

Corner and side bar size

5

Ledge stirrup size

6

Main bar number and sizes

These bars are placed next to the stirrups. The top and bottom corner bars are placed more inwards due to the stirrup bending radius.

7

Sidebar spacing, based on maximum target spacing

Bottom main bars

Select how the bottom main bars are positioned: inside the main stirrups or distributed to the ledges. You can select the position when the bottom main bars have the same height as at least one of the ledges.

Placing of top and bottom bars

Select the horizontal placing for the top and bottom bars. Select whether the bars are placed starting from the corner or at equal spaces.

Option Description

At equal spaces

From the corner

Bending direction

Option Description

Type 1

Type 2

Type 3

Type 4

Stirrup shape

Option Description

90-degree

135-degree

Overlapped

Additional links

Option

Description

No additional links.

Create additional internal links.

Create additional links.

Select whether links are created always or depending on the profile size from the Create links list.

If you select If profile size >, enter the minimum profile length.

Side bars

Select whether the side bars are created as one group or as separate rebar groups.

Hooks tab

Use the Hooks tab to create hooks and define their properties.

Define the hook type and bar end cover separately for the start and end of the rows.

Option

Description

No hook

Standard 90-degree hook

Standard 135-degree hook

Standard 180-degree hook

Custom hook

If you select a standard hook, the Angle, Radius, and Length use predefined dimensions.

Option

Description

Angle

Enter a value between -180 and +180 degrees.

Radius

Enter the internal bending radius of the hook.

Length

Enter the length of the straight part.

Stirrup spacing tab

Use the Stirrup spacing tab to define whether stirrups are created as one group or as separate groups, and to define stirrup spacing.

Stirrup spacing

Define the distances from the part ends to the first stirrups.

Option Description

N

Number of stirrups

Space

Define the spacing of stirrups.

Use a space to separate spacing values. Enter a value for each space between the stirrups. For example, if there are 3 stirrups, enter 2 values.

Main stirrup spacing type and Ledge Stirrup Spacing Type

Define how the main stirrups and ledge stirrups are distributed along the length of the beam.

Option

Description

Target

Tekla Structures creates equal spaces between the bars, aiming the spacing value as closely as possible to the value you specify. This is the default option.

Exact

The first and last space of a zone adjust themselves to even out bar distribution. The spaces in the middle of each zone are exactly the size you specify.

Advanced tab

Use the Advanced tab to define the naming and numbering properties of bars and stirrups.

Option Description

Name

Tekla Structures uses the name in drawings and reports.

Class

Use class to group reinforcement.

For example, you can display reinforcement of different classes in different colors.

Prefix

Prefix for the bar position number.

Start number

Start number for the bar position number.
