Placement conventions for mild steel top reinforcement in concrete slabs relative to column centerlines and bay lines. Typical bottom reinforcement as noted on plan with specified bar sizes and spacing in each way, alongside added bottom reinforcement and diagrammatic reinforcement placement. Actual reinforcement placement not explicitly shown on plan is represented by dashed lines. Staggered conditions apply to all top bars except hooked bars at slab edges, with stagger dimensions governed by the bottom reinforcing schedule. Reinforcement is centered mid-bay unless a reference dimension is provided on plan.
