This table should be read in conjunction with Figure 1. The bottom longitudinal reinforcements in all the cantilever beams were denoted by ②, as shown in the cross section A-A in Figure 1. Two HRB400 steel bars with a diameter of 10 mm were used as ② steel bars. The top and bottom longitudinal reinforcements in all the bottom beams of the specimens were denoted by ⑥, as shown in the cross section C-C in Figure 1. Three HRB400 steel bars with a diameter of 18 mm were used as ⑥ steel bars. The transverse reinforcement in all the bottom beams of the specimens were denoted by ⑦, as shown in the cross section C-C in Figure 1. HPB300 steel bars with a diameter of 10 mm were used as ⑦ steel bars with a spacing of 100 mm. , , , and , respectively, indicate reinforcement grades of HPB300, HRB400, HRB500, and HRB600. 210 bars ② were used as the bottom longitudinal reinforcements in all the cantilever beams. In the bottom beams of the specimens, 318 bars ⑥ were used as the top and bottom longitudinal reinforcements and 10 bars with a spacing of 100 mm ⑦ were used as the transverse reinforcement.
