Definition of Bar bending schedule(BBS)
Bar bending schedule alias schedule of bars refers to a list of reinforcement bars, a specified RCC work item that is
shown in a tabular form for a smooth view. This table sums up all the necessary particulars of bars ranging from
diameter, shape of bending, length of each bent and straight portions, angles of bending, total length of each bar, and
number of each type of bar. This information can be used for making an estimate of quantities.
lt includes all the details essential for fabrication of steel like bar mark, bar type and size, number of units, length of a
bar, shape code, distance between stirrups (column, plinth, beam) etc.
While generating bar schedules, it is important to take proper care about length. In case of bending, bar length will be
raised at the bending positions.
