Estimating Stirrups for Beam and Girder
Saturday, 12 April 2008 08:36
Stirrup is the structural reinforcing member that holds or binds together the main reinforcement of a beam or girder to a designed position. The two types of stirrup commonly used  are:

1. Open stirrups
2. Closed stirrups

The procedures adopted in estimating the number of stirrups is the same as that of the lateral ties. However, the spacing of the stirrup requires special consideration because its spacing is gradually becoming closer as it approaches the support. Thus, it is important to get the average number of stirrups per span or by direct counting from the detailed plan.
