Stirrup & link cutting length — review draft

Explore nine stirrup and link schedule shapes from IS 2502 Tables VIII and IX. Use established bending dimensions; engineering review required.

Inputs

• Bending dimension A (mm)
• Inside width E (mm)
• Bending dimension C (mm)
• Supplied bend allowance B (mm)
• Inside bending diameter D (mm)
• Nominal bar diameter (mm)

Assumptions and limitations

Draft schedule arithmetic based on IS 2502:1963 Tables VIII and IX, printed pages 13–14. Obtain A, E, C, D and bend allowance B from the selected approved bending sketch; they are not concrete section dimensions. B is a bend allowance, not a bar diameter. The printed expression already includes its contributions: do not add generic hook allowances. Material applicability, bend radii, hook fit and seismic/structural adequacy are not checked. An envelope diagram is not a fabrication drawing. The 25 mm round-up interpretation requires engineering review. Exact decimals describe arithmetic, not physical accuracy.
