This book provides the basic knowledge for a Detailer of reinforcing bars, bar supports and welded wire reinforcement. Detailing, described briefly, is the preparation of placing drawings complete with bar lists with sufficient information for: (1) the Fabricator to fabricate the bars and to order (when required by the Contract) the bar supports and welded wire reinforcement; and (2) the Ironworkers to install these products at the jobsite. The reader is shown how to translate and transfer the requirements presented on structural drawings and other documents onto a proper placing drawing. The language and form of the information are emphasized to achieve simplicity and efficiency for the end users - the Fabricator and the Ironworker. This textbook is intended for use by technical schools, junior colleges, and for on-the-job training programs. It is assumed that the reader has completed basic courses in high school mathematics, including elementary algebra and plane geometry. Trigonometry is desirable for the beginner and is necessary for more advanced training.
