About this detail

Reinforced concrete masonry unit wall columns and pilasters are detailed in plan view with specific reinforcing bar sizes and spacings. The column detail where length is less than three times thickness shows vertical reinforcing bars placed in cells with standard ties. The pier detail for lengths between three and six times thickness features both single and double curtain vertical reinforcement spaced at eight inches on center. The pilaster detail integrates a column into a masonry wall with eight number five vertical bars and ties positioned within two inches of the top and bottom. All cells within the pilaster and adjacent units are fully grouted per plan specifications.
