IS 2502: Code of Practice for Bending and Fixing of Bars for Concrete Reinforcement PDF EPUB Book Download
This Indian Standard was adopted by the Indian Standards Institution in 1963, after the draft finalized by the Joint Sectional Committee for Concrete Reinforcement had been approved by the Building Division Council and the Structural and Metals Division Council.
This standard is prepared with a view to assisting designers, engineers and contractors in drawing up precise bending schedules for reinforcement used in concrete construction, and also in the fixing of reinforcement. Though, it is well appreciated that much of time and effort can be saved on the site if rational dimensions for shaping the bars are supplied to the bar benders; different practices have been followed in drawing up the bar bending schedule. It is attempted in this standard to unify the various practices followed and to rationalize the bending schedule to correspond with metric series of reinforcement.
Bar bending is an operation which requires adequate supervision, good workmanship and efficient equipment; and any attempt to carry out the work with unskilled labour and inefficient tools will undoubtedly result in unsatisfactory work. In view of this, certain methods of bar bending are also included in this standard.
Though this standard is primarily intended for the preparation of bending schedule for reinforced concrete work, it may also be generally adopted for mild steel reinforcement used in prestressed concrete work.
The Sectional Committee responsible for the preparation of this standard has taken into consideration the views of producers and technologists and has related the standard to the manufacturing and trade practices followed in the country in this field.
