Estimate rebar concrete slab.

Calculating what you need for the sake of easy examples assume you re pouring a slab that s a simple rectangle of 20 by 30 feet and you ve figured out that you ll need the rebar set at 14 inches on center. Input length width and depth of the area. Work out the steel per m2. For example if the slab is 10 x 10 and the clearance is 3 the size of the rebar grid will be 9 6 x 9 6.

Start by multiplying each of those measurements by 12 to get your dimensions in inches which in this case would be 240 inches by 360. Calculate rebar spacing layout and weight in a concrete slab. Subtract the clearance from the length and width to find the dimensions of the grid. The grid is the horizontal and vertical spacing of your rebar.

Layout of rebar for concrete slabs to estimate the quantity of rebar in slab to strengthen concrete slabs you ll have to assess the required measure of rebar for your two dimensional shape. Regardless of what the particular format might be the procedure is generally the equivalent. Multiply the steel per m2 x your slab area. This calculator is to be used as an estimating tool only.
