Refer attached snap from IS13920. Max spacing limit for confining reinf is 100mm in this case. RCDC output shows spacing of 125mm, is this correct?
The clause you are referring to has been amended along back. As per Amendment no 1 to IS13920 :2016 the 3 criteria have been replaced with a single one. Please see attached snap. As per amendment maximum spacing will be 6 times the smallest longitudinal reinforcement. Here, dia of longitudinal reinforcement is 25mm. So, maximum allowed is 6 x 25mm = 150mm. So, spacing 125mm is okay.
