23 - APPENDIX A - FORMAT FOR REINFORCEMENT SCHEDULE

Sets out recommendations for the preparation of plans for structural engineering work. The first two sections, taken with Part 101 of AS 1100, provide a common method for representation of structures and structural elements, including identification of elements and conventions for cross-referencing. Section 3 provides recommendations applying to particular materials, including reinforced and prestressed concrete, structural steel, timber and masonry. An appendix gives the recommended format for a reinforcement schedule.

This standard sets out recommendations for structural engineering drawing practice. It is complementary to AS 1100, Part 101.The types of structures intended to be dealt with by this standard are generally those covered by structural design and construction codes, particularly the following:AS 1250 SAA Steel Structures CodeAS 1475 SAA Blockwork CodeAS 1480 SAA Concrete Structures CodeAS 1481 SAA Prestressed Concrete CodeAS 1640 SAA Brickwork CodeAS 1720 SAA Timber Engineering CodeNAA SRA Bridge Design SpecificationAREA Manual for Railway Engineering
