AOA everyone. Recently I've been very confused with development length and how its provided in different components. I have a few conceptual confusions about it and then a few practical and design aspects of it. I'd really appreciate help on these. Do we provide/check development length for simply supported beams (i.e. check it past the max moment?) Where do we need to check for development length? (in my understanding, we need to check it almost everywhere, where you need to ensure full moment capacity) What is a "critical section" when we talk about development length? (refer to the attached picture) I think its the point beyond which we need to ensure development At a wall-slab joint where both the slab and wall are 8" thick, if #6 bars at 8" c/c need to be developed from the slab into the wall, I found that even with the 90 degree hook, the development length is at least 14". How do you satisfy development length in such a case? For hooked development length ldh, is it the length up to the hook or is the length that includes the length of the hook? For example for a 90 degree hook, would it be 12db+the length beyond the critical section or just the length beyond the critical section up to the hook? I've seen in a few places on the internet that people include the 12db into the development length. This stuff has been eating up gray matter from my brain for a few days now. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
