Lap Lengths for Various Concrete Grades

The document provides calculations for the development length (Ld) of reinforcement bars in concrete of different grades of strength. It shows that as the grade of concrete decreases from M40 to M25, the calculated Ld increases, ranging from 35.77φ to 48.55φ for deformed bars with a yield strength of 500MPa. The compressive Ld is also provided, which is smaller than the tensile Ld in each case. Bond strength values decrease as concrete grade decreases.
