why spacer in reinforcement? 

Answer Posted / piyush singh

Spacer bar are used to maintain the depth of the bars as per the design, also the size of the spacer bar should be such that the coarse aggregate should pass between the two layers of the Rebars,

So if in concrete 20mm aggregate are used then spacer bar should be of 25mm size so that aggregates can easily pass through it

In foundation design, while we do the base pressure check, we normally check if the attained pressure value is less than the GROSS BEARING CAPACITY of the soil which is the sum of net bearing capacity of soil and the overburden pressure. Actually, the overburden pressure acts against the net bearing capacity of the soil and I feel that we are actually increasing the bearing capacity value and doing the check. I feel that this is NOT right. Please clarify on this.
