Rebar Development Length is an efficient mobile tool for calculating rebar development length per ACI 318-11 Chapter 12 or ACI 318-14 chapter 25. The app also calculates compression development length, hooked bar development length, and minimum class B splice length based on a series of user inputs.
Rebar Development Length is the first app of its kind which performs the most common rebar anchorage calculations in seconds. Calculations include development length, hooked bar development length, compression development length, and Class B Splice per ACI 318-11 . This tool will allow structural engineers to perform these complex calculations wherever they are with their iPhone or iPad device. No longer will engineers need to completely rely on a commercial software, spreadsheets, or hand calculations.
The app now includes the latest concrete code ACI 318-14, variable concrete strengths and rebar strengths, and metric or english units. Metric results are determined by converting Metric inputs into English units before calculations are performed, then converting units back to Metric for output)
Whether used for training, or to supplement a practicing engineers services, this tool will make the user a better structural engineer.
