Name that violation - Residential SFR

[jar546]

I will start out with a simple one. Name the applicable code section.

 

[Msradell]

Offhand I would say the times are too close to the form but actually looking at the engineers design would be required to confirm that. I don't have a copy of the ACI book or code book handy right now for the sections involved.

 

[Beniah Naylor]

2018 IRC - R403.1.3.5.3 Support and cover of reinforcement, and R404.1.3.3.7 Reinforcement.

 

[SCBO1]

If that's a foundation wall, those bars are #5's you need more coverage, 1.5 inches at the wall face. If #4's .75 inches of coverage.

Concur with above, to close to form.

 

[SCBO1]

Any required horizontal bars needed?

 

[classicT]

Insufficient clearance and the welded wire horizontal reinforcement should be continuous through the pilaster.

Also, never seen a column hoop in that shape. Was that shape specified by the EoR? The bends appear to be a violation of ACI 318; too tight of a radius.

 

[Joe.B]

Is it an engineered design? We are in a high seismic zone, but high wind zones could be in effect too. If either were in effect I can't imagine an Engineer would design it this way or approve it, for the reasons already stated.

[SCBO1]

Is there a substitute teacher for this class?

 

[mtlogcabin]

Name the applicable code section.

SECTION R106
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
6 pounds of steel in a 4 pound area

I would have thought that after all the years of CBS wall construction down there somebody would have come up with a different design by now.
