Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide

federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be re-
presented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are

circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
iTeh STANDARD PREVIEW
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.

Construction drawings - Simplified representation of

concrete reinforcement

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the simplified representation of reinforcement in reinforced concrete and in
prestressed concrete for use on construction drawings.

2 Ordinary reinforcement (non-prestressed)

Simplified representation of reinforcement in non-prestressed concrete is shown in table 1.
