Development Length of Standard Hooks Only in Tension [ACI 318M-11-12.

5]

Standard hook should be satified as Figure 1.

This only apply for normal-weigth concrete (exclude light-weight concrete): λ= 1.0
Yielding strength of reinforcement bar: f.y= 390 MPa
Reinforcement coating: Uncoated or zinc-coated (galvanized) reinforcement
ψ.e= 1.0
Cover (apply only on 90-degree hook): Other
ψ.c= 1
Confining reinforcement: Other
ψ.r= 1.0

Reinforcement in excess of that required by analysis [A.s(required)/A.s(provided)]: ψ.ex= 1.0
