About this detail

Edge reinforcement required for post-tensioned concrete slabs containing closely spaced tendon anchors. The assembly features a tendon anchor set into a pocket former at the stressing end, with a two-inch minimum cover at the anchors and a one-inch minimum cover top and bottom. Two continuous number four back-up bars are provided with two-foot laps as required. Typical bent number four bars are installed with top and bottom reinforcement, extending one foot six inches beyond the last bent bar. One bent bar is placed between each anchor and on each side of the anchor group. This configuration is required at locations with six or more tendon anchors spaced at twelve inches or less on center, and the contractor must use diagonally cut long pocket formers at slab edges not perpendicular to the post-tension cable run.
