(a) Development Length

Development Length
Ldc = fy · ψr50 · λ · f'c · db = 60000 psi · 1.050 · 1.0 · 4000 psi · 0.75 in = 14.23 in
fy Specified yield strength for nonprestressed reinforcement
ψr Factor used to modify development length based on confining reinforcement
λ Modification factor to reflect the reduced mechanical properties of lightweight concrete relative to normal weight concrete of the same compressive strength
f'c Compressive strength
db Nominal diameter of bar, wire, or prestressing strand
