Splicing

Splicing adds to the congestion.

1" spacing is generally required
to allow the 3/4" aggregate to pass
down through the upper and lower
mats.

This mat is made up of #7's @

4" each way. Because the
cross-section of reinforcing bar
is oblong and with lugs,
about 1" to 1 1/8" of space is
required to accomodate the bar.
