Bar Bending Schedule (BBS)Bar bending schedule is a table form data in which various diameters of steel, the shape of bending, length of each bent and straight portions, angles of bending, the total length of each bar, and a number of each type of bar. This information is very useful for site engineer who is working on-site and while preparing estimate and bills of work.
How Is Bend Deducted In Bar Bending Schedules?
The Bend deductions are very much important while calculating the Bar Bending Schedule. Basically, we will be having a thought that while bending a bar how much length of the bar should be cut.

Many of us think that we require more than the required length so that the bar will come to its perfect length after Bending. But this is not true.

The Reinforcement bars which come to the market are of Length 12 m.

So as the steel has the deformation property, due to the elasticity the length of the bar increases while we bend them.

So the Deductions will be different for the different bents based on the angles.
