Note: guage is not a correct term for rebar. Size - the indicator of the diameter of rebar sticks.There may be more than one mat with space in between mats. Mat - a crisscross grid of rebar sticks.Lapping Factor - the multiple of a rebar diameter used to specify appropriate rebar lapping length.Lapping - when two sticks of rebar are overlapped and bound together.In the U.S., the most common lengths of rebar sticks are 20', 40' and 60'. Multiple parallel grids, at uniform space intervals, are referred to as rebar mats. The grids have spacing between the rebar rows, and they are placed within the concrete form by a specified inset from the edge of the concrete. Rebar is laid out in grids, crisscrossed patterns of rebar, tied at the intersections where runs of rebar touch.
Carbon steel is the most commonly used material for rebar, which may also be coated with zinc or epoxy resin. This all has the net result of substantially added tensile strength when rebar is part of the concrete form. Rebar and concrete expand similarly with temperature variations. When the concrete has hardened, the concrete around the rebar ribs keep the rebar in place. Rebar is put in place before concrete is poured.
Rebar is a roughly circular steel bar with ribs used to provide added tensile strength to concrete structures.
The Rebar Lapping Length calculator computes the length overlap needed at rebar joints.
