Ductile Detailing for Beams, Bracings and Brackets

Spacing of Links over a length of 2d at either end of a

beam shall not exceed:
a). d/4
B1 B2 B3
Overall Depth of Beam = 400 500 1000
Diameter of longitudinal bar = 12 16 16
Nominal Cover = 40 40 40
Effecctive depth of Beam, d = 354 452 952
d/4 = 88.5 113 238

(Where, Db = Diameter of
b). 8 Db Smallest Longitudinal Bar)

Smallest Dia. Of Longitudinal Bar, D b = 12 12 16

8 Db = 96 96 128

c). 100 mm

Therefore, Spacing of Links to be

provided c/c
= 89 96 100
