Reinforced concrete wall details show opening jambs, lintels, and top-of-wall conditions for both single and double mat reinforcement. Lintels utilize two number six bars for openings less than five feet wide and two number seven bars for openings from five feet one inch to seven feet wide, with standard hooks provided where bars cannot be extended. Wall jamb bars extend floor to floor or floor to roof when openings exceed four feet in width, and lap splices are provided with a length of Ld. Standard hooks are used top and bottom, with two number five minimum bars at wall ends and U bars matching the main wall reinforcement.
