This calculator creates a map of Rebar placements for block walls.
Enter walls as panels and openings, in multiples of 8 inches, separated by spaces.
eg: a wall with a panel of 8', then an opening of 6' 8", then a panel of 2' 8" is entered as 96 80 32.
Enter all panels and openings (ending in a panel), select Max Centers from the dropdown and hit 'Calculate' to display the rebar placement map and diagram of the wall.
You can enter multiple walls, separated by a - (minus sign) or enter and print walls separately.
If you're cutting concrete, stone or ANYTHING and there's DUST - DON'T TAKE THE RISK
Don't cut it, or cut it wet so there's NO DUST - Silicosis Sucks
How should we spell it?

Although diameter and perimeter as measurements - don't seem to fit very well
If the US ever goes Metric, you'll be able to use a Meter to measure Meters - A Meter Meter
All Imperial inputs and dimensions are actual physical finished sizes(unless otherwise noted)
All Metric Inputs in Millimetres(unless otherwise noted)
