A bar bending schedule (BBS) is a vital document that provides detailed information on the quantity, size, shape and placement of reinforcement bars in reinforced concrete structures. It ensures the accurate and efficient execution of elements like slabs, beams, columns and footings. This course explains how to prepare for a BBS. We begin with footing BBS and explore various footing types and estimation techniques.

Then we delve into column BBS fundamentals and describe various reinforcement bars. We show you how to calculate the cutting length for various forms of stirrups. We also explore BBS techniques used for beams, slabs, staircases and other complex concrete structures. We explain how to prepare an Excel sheet for BBS, draw shapes and find each reinforced concrete element's cutting length.

This course is designed for civil and structural engineers and construction professionals who want to create accurate BBS for a range of structures. We combine theoretical instruction, practical exercises and real-world case studies to provide a comprehensive learning experience. This diploma course provides the training you need to create high-quality BBS for various construction projects. Sign up to improve your construction skills and master the use of BBS in concrete structures.
