8. Constructability & Coordination

  • [ ] Bar Congestion: Review sections for high congestion (especially beam-column joints). Adjust bar sizes or layout if necessary.
  • [ ] Embedments: Coordinate locations of pipes, sleeves, and inserts with reinforcement layout.
  • [ ] Concrete Placement: Ensure rebar layout allows for concrete vibration and flow.
  • [ ] Bar Bending: Check if bar bending radius is physically possible (min bend diameter per CRSI/ACI).

Seismic Members: Covers Intermediate Moment Frames, Special Moment Frames, and Special Structural Walls.
