Common Negligence found before slab casting
- Spacing
of the main reinforcement.
- Distance
of bent-up from the face of support differs from typical bar bending.
- Every junction
of the main and distribution bars is not tied to each other properly.
- For the
end support of the slab, bent-up bars are not bent or hooked into beam.
- Insufficient
chairs are provided under the bent-up bars.
- Laps for
slabs are not provided in a staggered manner.
- Lap lengths
provided are insufficient.
- Length of
projection of bent-up bars, in case of continuous slab, is not found as per the
requirement, i.e., L/4.
- Height of
the bent-up bars is always found to be the same for different thickness of
slabs.
- Extra length
of cutting bars at the ends leads to improper end cover.
- Insufficient
chairs are provided to cantilever slabs, due to which top reinforcement is not
properly maintained at the top position.
- Same lap
length for all diameter of bars.
