Page 92 - Top bars are horizontal bars so placed that more than 12 inches of concrete is cast in the member below the bar. In case of uncertainties regarding classification of horizontal bars, use bond stress for top bars. * Deformations for high bond bars shall conform to the requirements of ASTMDesignation A.
Page 91 - The designs were based on the use of concrete having a compressive strength of 3,000 pounds per square inch at 28 days. A modular ratio of 10 was assumed. For unusual loading conditions, working stresses were permitted to exceed the allowable by 33 percent.
