In the following paragraphs, all of the terms in ACI Equation 12-1 that have not previously
been introduced are described. their values for different situations were given in
the previous page.
1. Location of reinforcement—Horizontal bars that have a least 12 in.[3] of fresh concrete
placed beneath them do not bond as well to concrete as do bars placed nearer the bottom
of the concrete. These bars are referred to as top bars. During the placing and vibration
of the concrete, some air and excess water tend to rise toward the top of the concrete,
and some portion may be caught under the higher bars. In addition, there may be some
settlement of the concrete below. As a result, the reinforcement does not bond as well to
the concrete underneath, and increased development lengths will be needed. To account
for this effect, the reinforcement location factor, ψt, is used.
2. Coating of bars—Epoxy-coated reinforcing bars are frequently used today to protect the
steel from severe corrosive situations, such as where deicing chemicals are used. Bridge
decks and parking garage slabs in the colder states fit into this class. When bar coatings
are used, bonding is reduced and development lengths must be increased. To account
for this fact, the term ψe—the coating factor—is used in the equation.
3. Sizes of reinforcing—If small bars are used in a member to obtain a certain total crosssectional
area, the total surface area of the bars will be appreciably larger than if fewer
but larger bars are used to obtain the same total bar area. As a result, the required
development lengths for smaller bars with their larger surface bonding areas (in proportion
to their cross-sectional areas) are less than those required for larger-diameter bars.
This factor is accounted for with the reinforcement size factor, ψs.
4. Lightweight aggregates—The dead weight of concrete can be substantially reduced by
substituting lightweight aggregate for the regular stone aggregate. The use of such aggregates
(expanded clay or shale, slag, etc.) generally results in lower-strength concretes.
Such concretes have lower splitting strengths, and so development lengths will have to
be larger. In the equation, λ is the lightweight concrete modification factor discussed in
Section 1.12.
5. Spacing of bars or cover dimensions—Should the concrete cover or the clear spacing
between the bars be too small, the concrete may very well split, as was previously
shown in Figure 7.6. This situation is accounted for with the (cb + Ktr)/db term in the
where:
Atr = the total cross-sectional area of all transverse reinforcement having the
center-to-center spacing s and a yield strength fyt
n = the number of bars or wires being developed along the plane of splitting. If steel
is in two layers, n is the largest number of bars in a single layer.
s = center-to-center spacing of transverse reinforcing
The code in Section 12.2.3 conservatively permits the use of Ktr = 0 to simplify the calculations,
even if transverse reinforcing is present. ACI 12.2.3 limits the value of (cb + Ktr)/db
used in the equation to a maximum value of 2.5. (It has been found that if values larger than
2.5 are used, the shorter development lengths resulting will increase the danger of pullout-type
failures.)
The calculations involved in applying ACI Equation 12-1 are quite simple, as is illustrated
in Example 7.2.(del libro de Mcormac y Brown, 9a edición)
