The issues should be considered comprehensively during the construction of steel bar connectors: the position of the joint should be arranged at a position with less stress, and the ground joints of adjacent steel bars should be properly staggered to facilitate operation. Choosing the right type coupler and thread directing according to the actual situation of the floor and reinforcement to adjust it in time.

Remedial measures for incorrect position of rebar connectors

If the position of the joint is not correct, the first thing to do is contact the designer, and the following measures usually be taken to remedy it.

1. The position deviation of the joint is small, which can be solved by adjusting the bending angle of the connecting steel bar, but it must meet the requirements of 1/6 of the specification and get the designer approval in advance.

2. The joint position deviation of the steel bar connector is large. Edge beams can be constructed first at the connector locations, converting the bottom reinforcement and diaphragm walls to connections between the bottom and edge beams. This method must be approved by the designer in advance.
