A space between two bars is referred to as the overlapped or spliced column, as indicated by the terms overlapping length and lap length. Lap splicing is a technique used to overlap two reinforcement bars. Loads are transferred securely from one member to another through the overlapping of reinforcement bars. Reinforcement bars can be bought on the market in lengths up to 12 m. Reinforcement bars are joined together to obtain the required length for a structure larger than 12 m. Splicing or lapping uses this connection.
