  1. Area of tensile steel per meter width of a reinforced concrete slab is 335 sq mm. If 8 mm rods are used as reinforcement, then centre to centre spacing of the reinforcement in mm is ________
    1. 45 to 55
    2. 145 to 155
    3. 125 to 135
    4. 105 to 195
Correct Option: B

Total area of steel is 335 mm2
Area of 8 mm rod = π r 2 = 3.14 × 4 × 4 = 50.24 mm2

Total no. of rods spread in 1m of width =
335
= 6.67
50.24

So, 7 rods are spread in 1 m of width.
So, distance between two rods will be 1m / 6.67 = 150 mm
