Typical reinforcement layout for concrete wall panels containing openings such as windows and doors. Vertical jamb bars consisting of two number six bars run continuously along the sides of the openings, supplemented by diagonal five-bar corner reinforcing extending thirty inches minimum above and below. Additional horizontal and vertical reinforcing bars frame the top and bottom of the openings, with alternate bars cut short provided spacing is within allowable limits. Reference callouts direct the builder to specific panel elevations for lintel details and precise reinforcement cut-off points.
