Rebar Table: Total rebar length by Slab length

Reference table of total rebar length for Rebar across a range of slab length values — exact, engine-computed figures you can read off at a glance.

How to use this table

Find the row closest to your slab length and read across to the total rebar length. For a value between two rows, the real figure sits between them — or enter your exact numbers in the Rebar Calculator for a precise answer.

Need a value that is not in the table? — the Rebar Calculator does it instantly, for free, with the formula and a worked example built in.
