RCCShrinkage Steel in SlabMEDIUM
Choose the correct answer
A
0.12% of gross sectional area in both directions
B
0.15% of gross sectional area
C
0.3% in main direction only
D
0.12% in distribution direction only
Correct Answer
A. 0.12% of gross sectional area in both directions
Why is this the answer?
IS 456:2000 Cl. 26.5.2.1: Minimum steel for shrinkage and temperature effects in slabs = 0.12% of total cross-sectional area (using HYSD bars Fe415/Fe500) in both directions.
