Side-Face Reinforcement in Beams: Clause 26.5.1.3 IS 456:2000 Explained

In this video, I explain the requirements for side-face reinforcement in beams as per Clause 26.5.1.3 of IS 456:2000. For beams with a web depth exceeding 750 mm, the code specifies that reinforcement should be provided on both faces. I walk through the calculation of the required area of reinforcement (at least 0.1% of the web area) and the criteria for maximum spacing, ensuring your design meets the code's standards. This video is essential for structural engineers and students looking to deepen their understanding of reinforced concrete design.
