### Bar Bending Schedule:
| S. No. | Bar Type | Bar Shape | Length of Bar | Spacing | Quantity | Weight per Bar | Total Weight
|
| ------ | ------------ | --------- | ------------- | -------- | ---------- | -------------- | ------------ |
|1 | Longitudinal | Straight | 6559.7 ft | 6 in c/c | Calculated | 0.888 kg/m | Calculated |
|2 | Transverse | Straight | 23.75 ft | 6 in c/c | Calculated | 0.888 kg/m | Calculated |
|3 | Tie Bars | Straight | 640 mm | 720 mm | Calculated | 0.888 kg/m | Calculated |
|4 | Dowel Bars | Straight | 450 mm | 300 mm | Calculated | 6.313 kg/m | Calculated |
### Formulae Used:
- **Weight per bar (kg):** 0.006165 x (Dia in mm)^2 x Length in m
- **Quantity (bars):** Total weight / Weight per bar

### Key Notes:
- Ensure proper alignment and binding of tie bars and dowel bars at specified spacing.
- Maintain the specified concrete cover of 1.5 inches from all sides.
- Use spacers to ensure accurate positioning of reinforcement.
- Double-check calculations for total weight and quantities of bars based on dimensions and spacing
requirements.
