Effective butt joints of bar reinforcement in modern monolithic housing construction

Abstract

The research of national and foreign achievements in the technology of joining reinforcing bars of the periodic profile, which ensure the continuity of the formation of reinforcing cages in the monolithic housing construction, has been carried out. It has been found that in Ukraine, according to the current regulatory documents, in the usual conditions and in seismic areas, two main methods of joining the bar reinforcement are used: overlap (without welding and welded) with the most demanded welded method. Summarized conclusions and recommendations are given.
