Rebar Slenderness Ratio

[KAR FUNG]

Hi Guys,

What is the rebar slenderness ratio for all the rebar sizes for T10, T12, T16, T20, T25 and T32?
Your reply is referred to which clause of the standard.

Thanks.

kl/r... r = 0.29*dia approx, if I recall.

Just r=d/4 for a circular cross section dik.

Kar Fung... not sure if that's what you needed. If you're really looking at the slenderness of rebar (e.g. temporary condition before concrete), TWf has an excellent publication available:
