8, ‘A Beam and Column Junclion - Where a

COIL hn extends above a beam, bend the beam top
rein arcement down into the column but if it is
necc sary to bend the bars up, detail additional
stee as in Fig. 8.27.

8.7.5 Closing Corners - At closing corners

provide adequate radii (equa! to at least 7.5 bar
diameters) and some additional reinforcement as
in Fig. 8.28.
8.8 Beam of D’ifferent Depths -- Typical
arrangements of reinforcement over the support
when the beam on either side of the support are of
different depths is shown in Fig. 8.29. FIG. 8.29 BEAMS AT DIFFERENT DEPTHS
8.9 Tie Members - As a tie ’ is under pure
tension there is no tendency to burst like an consideration is the end conditions where a
axially loaded column and therefore binders are method should be devised to anchor the tie
not required. But, in order to form the and/or spread its axial load into the connecting
longitudinal bars into a cage, a minimum number members.
of links is used. As there is theoretically no shear
or bending moment acting on a tie, only main practice a small splay at the ends of the tie is
longitudinal reinforcement is required. The main made to allow for any slight moment that may be
induced at the ends. Simple end details for light
8.9.1 End Details -These shall provide loading are shown in Fig. 8.30. The ties are shown
adequate anchors and correct bond lengths. In by the arrows.
