Standard length of measured reinforcement

Construction works, production of reinforced concrete products, furniture and other types of work require the use of high-quality rolled metal. The popular types of such products include reinforcement, which can be of different thickness, length and strength index. The number, thickness and length of the reinforcement used should be calculated at the design stage. Fittings are produced in different sizes. However, length is paramount in the calculation. There are certain length standards. This information will allow you to choose the best option and calculate the number of rods for the foundation and other construction work.

Rebar length options

Most often, rebar is sold 12 meters long. However, you can purchase reinforcing bars of different lengths. This indicator is determined by state standards.

GOST 5781

The size of building reinforcement in this standard can be from 2 meters. For rods up to 6 meters, the deviation from the size can be +50 mm, with a length of more than 6 meters - a deviation of +70 mm. It can also order products of increased accuracy.

If the batch is measured, then the length of the reinforcement is any number that is included in the segment 6-12 mm. And the choice of the desired length is set by the manufacturer or customer. If you need to order measuring fittings wholesale and retail, manufactured in accordance with GOST, you should go to following the link. Products are distinguished by strict compliance with standards and high quality.

GOST 10884

The length of such products can be up to 13.5 meters. However, according to this GOST, rebar up to 26 meters long can be produced if such products are required by the customer.

Random bars in measured deliveries should not exceed 15% of the total supply. If batches of random bars with a length of 6-12 meters are ordered, then the presence in the total volume of products less than 6 meters should be less than 7%. Deviations from the standard GOST values ​​are applied when ordering a batch of reinforcement with a higher accuracy indicator.

GOST 52544

If we consider this standard for the manufacture of building reinforcement, then its length should be between 6 and 12 m. If this is a measured batch, then it must contain products of a certain size, depending on the needs of the customer. A random batch contains different bars within these length limits, but the total number of products less than 6 meters is no more than 7 percent of the volume.

GOST 31938

According to this standard, reinforcement with a length of from 0.5 to 12 meters. The step size is 50 cm. Therefore, other length variations according to this standard are not allowed. However, some deviations are possible, which depend on the length of the reinforcement. At the same time, according to the standard, deviations are possible only upwards. This type of reinforcement is widely used for industrial construction, therefore it is most often supplied in coils.

What affects the size of the reinforcement

The factors that affect the size of the reinforcement include:

• State standards that are used in production;
• Decision of a specific manufacturer;
• Customer requirements;
• Generally accepted rebar sizes that are most often used for construction work.

First of all, state standards are used in the manufacture of fittings. However, they can make minor errors, the values ​​​​of which are prescribed in GOSTs. The requirements of the customer or the manufacturer's decision on the size of the reinforcement can only be within the limits of state standards.
