Spacing of Ties:

Spacing of ties as per ACI 318M - 08 Section 7.10.5.2

a. 16 times diameter of vertical bars = 400 mm

b. 48 times diameter of tie bars = 576 mm
c. Least dimension of pile = 1000 mm

Required Spacing of ties, whichever is less = 400 mm

Provide 12 mm dia ties at 300 mm c/c for depth below construction joint and 150 mm c/c above
construction joint to meet safe requirements.
