Factors affecting rebar overruns in the construction of monolithic structures
This article contains a method for calculating the excessive consumption of rebar in the construction of monolithic residential buildings. Using the example of a monolithic building in the city of Moscow, factors such as the intensity of the reinforcement, the size of the part and the diameter of the reinforcement, which affect the abundance of reinforcement, were considered. It was also found that the over-cost ratio of 1.03, which is widely accepted, is not sufficiently justified, and does not consider the above factors. The authors recommend that to avoid additional incalculable costs for the construction of a monolithic building, calculate possible rebar overruns, considering the intensity of the rebar, the size of the parts and the diameter of the rebar.
