The minimum length of lap splices for reinforcing bars in tension or compression, ld, shall be ld = 0.002db fs (Equation 21-1)but not less than 12 inches (305 mm). In no case shall the length of the lapped splice be less than 40 bar diameters.In regions of moment where the design tensile stresses in the reinforcement are greater than 80 percent of the allowable steel tension stress, Fs, the lap length of splices shall be increased not less than 50 percent of the minimum required length, but need not be greater than 72db. Other equivalent means of stress transfer to accomplish the same 50 percent increase shall be permitted. Where epoxy coated bars are used, lap length shall be increased by 50 percent.[Statutory Authority: RCW 19.27.031 and 19.27.074. WSR 16-03-064, § 51-50-21070, filed 1/19/16, effective 7/1/16.
