The rebar calculator for footings helps you accurately estimate the amount of rebar needed for your construction project’s foundation.
How to Use the Rebar Calculator
To use the rebar calculator, enter the dimensions of the footing (length, width, and depth) in meters. Then, enter the diameter of the rebar in millimeters and the desired spacing of the rebars in meters. Click the “Calculate” button to see the results.
How it Calculates
The calculator determines the total number of rebars required based on the length and width of the footing and the specified spacing. It then calculates the total length of rebar needed to cover the specified areas as well as the total number of rebars needed.
Limitations
This calculator makes several assumptions: it assumes an even distribution of rebar and does not account for overlaps or additional lengths needed for anchoring or tying. Ensure to consult with a structural engineer for precise requirements specific to your project.
