[Free Tools] Development & Splice Length Calculator (ACI318-19)

January 22, 2025
BLOG BRIDGE INSIGHT

Quick Reference for Development and Splice Lengths by Diameter

 

Have you ever calculated development lengths using detailed formulas, entering each variable separately for different rebar diameters? Suppose you've worked on slabs, beams, or columns. In that case, you might recall the inconvenience of manually inputting parameters like rebar spacing and calculating the development length for each diameter individually based on the detailed formulas. This process is repetitive and time-consuming, especially when structural elements require varying rebar spacing.

 

To address this inefficiency, I developed this tool. You can instantly calculate and review the development and splice lengths for all rebar diameters across various structural components  by simply inputting rebar apacing and clear cover thickness for each structural element. This tool streamlines the calculation process, saves time, and ensures you have all the required data at your fingertips without repetitive manual entry.

About the Author
Liam | Structural Engineer | MIDAS IT HQ

I joined MIDASIT in 2022 after several years of work as a Structural Engineer in Korea.

Since 2022, I have primarily focused on planning for performance-based seismic design. Currently, I am concentrating on creating plugins and producing educational videos on API utilization, aiming to introduce innovative tools and methodologies into the design process to help engineers work more efficiently.
