A concrete slab step transition details the vertical elevation change in a slab on grade or suspended slab, incorporating continuous top and bottom reinforcing bars. The assembly is reinforced with number four top and bottom bars spaced at eighteen inches on center, along with number four continuous top and bottom laps extending two feet zero inches as required. The vertical step dimension X is governed by the structural plan with a maximum limit of one foot zero inches, and the horizontal step dimension equals six times X unless noted otherwise on plan. Minimum embedment and extension lengths of one foot six inches are maintained for the top and bottom continuous reinforcing bars extending past the step transition.
