STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE OF RC FOOTING BEAM WITH PREFABRICATED REINFORCING UNIT WITH 225° SHEAR REINFORCEMENT

Abstract

The footing beam of the house is the reinforced concrete construction with deformed steels, and the width of the footing beam becomes narrower than conventional RC beam. Therefore a main reinforcement is arranged by one length and breadth. In late years all strength welding was developed. However, it needs a high technique. Therefore we bent a 180 degrees hook 45 degrees in this study more and developed a machined 225 degrees hook and tested the steel reinforced concrete construction footing beam using this and performed the comparison with a 180 degrees hook and the welding reinforcing rod.
