Question : 167 of 200

Marks: +1, -0

The total length of bar having hook at both the ends is:

L+24D
L+9D
L+12D
L+18D

Solution:

The hook is the extra length left at the 4

^{\th}

corner of a stirrup so that the stirrup retains its shape.
Generally, hook length is taken as 9d for one side.
Where d = Diameter of the bar.
The total length of stirrups = Total length of the bar + 2 × hook length (for two hooks)
= L + 2 × 9d
= L + 18d.
Where L = length of the bar for stirrup.
