REINFORCEMENT OF STEEL IN TIE BEAMS AS PER IS

Hi there
Your question is too broad. If you are assembling a concrete structure, make your beam adequate size and reinforce w/up to 2% cross section of steel. I like to stay a minimum of an 1.5 inches from outside of beam if interior or three inches if exterior for corrosion prevention of rod. Variations can be safely accommodated by using epoxy coated steel and other methods. Google is full of answers but now you have the basics. If you are talking about a timber/truss system, figure about 10% of total load to prevent roll and for stabilization. Again, it has to be ENGINEERED.
Thank You
