COLUMN PLACING DRAWING
Perimeter beams, shall have continuous reinforcement over the span length passing thru the region bounded by the longitudinal reinforcement of the column consisting of
1. At least 1/6 of the required tension reinforcement for neg. moment but not less than 2 bars
2. At least 1/4 of the required tension reinforcement for positive moment but not less than 2 bars
And tied with closed stirrups. Closed stirrups need not be extended through any joints. Continuity with top bars spliced at midspan & bottom bars spliced at or near the support with Class B tension splices
(NSCP 2010)407.14 Requirements for Structural Integrity, Perimeter Beams
(NSCP 2010)407.14 Requirements for Structural Integrity, Interior beams
In other than perimeter beams, when closed stirrups are provided there are no additional requirement for longitudinal integrity reinforcement. Where such transverse reinforcement is not provided, at least 1/4 of the positive moment reinforcement required at midspan, but not less than 2 bars shall be continuous or shall be spliced near or over the support with a “class B” tension splice and at non- continuous supports be terminated with a standard hook
