Preparation Clean slab shuttering/formwork properly. Check slab thickness, levels, and centering support. Ensure cover blocks are placed (usually 20–25 mm for slab). 2. Placing Reinforcement Main bars (bottom layer): Placed in the shorter span direction. Distribution bars (top layer): Placed in the longer span direction. Bars should follow the spacing given in the drawing (e.g., 150 mm c/c or 200 mm c/c). Cut bars to required length. 3. Binding of Reinforcement Use annealed binding wire (16 to 18 gauge). Tie bars at intersections (where main and distribution bars cross). Binding is done in a diagonal knot or cross tie so that bars don’t move during concreting. Spacers and cover blocks are used to maintain spacing and cover. 4. Additional Reinforcement Provide extra bars at supports and openings (as per drawing). Place crank bars (bent bars at 45°) in alternate main bars for continuous slabs. Chairs are used to maintain distance between top and bottom reinforcement layers. 5. Checking Before Concreting Ensure correct spacing of bars. Check lap length (generally 50 times bar diameter for tension zone). Verify reinforcement is rigid and doesn’t shift. 👉 Example: For a slab of 125 mm thickness with Fe500 steel, main bars may be 12 mm dia @ 150 mm c/c and distribution bars 10 mm dia @ 200 mm c/c.
