BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works.

Counts include bars at both supplied grid extents. Additional lap and trim length is entered separately. This does not select spacing, diameter or reinforcement design.

Total length = bars along L × L + bars along W × WCalculated with normalised units
