Usually, when precast the holes for the pipes of catch basin, the detail shows the reinforcement (rebar) around the opening. Previously, some details show the extension is 2 feet typical. But when you have a small structure with a fairly big pipe connection, the rebar will extended into the structure wall. Either the contractor need cut the rebar, or bend it. Do you guys have any idea how far the extension (one rebar extend beyond another perpendicular rebar) need to be? Personally I think 2 feet is more than enough, and that rebar is only to prevent the concrete cracking. And trust me, it is not a typo of 2 inches. I already confirmed with other engineer.
How do you guys think?
Thanks.
