L bar reinforcement is rebar bent into the Shape Code 11 configuration, giving the bar its recognisable L-shaped outline. South Steel supplies cut and bent reinforcement online for domestic and trade projects. Use your structural engineer’s drawings, calculations, specification or reinforcement schedule to confirm both leg dimensions, the bar diameter and the quantity you need before ordering.
Order L Bars Online
Select the specified diameter and enter the A and B dimensions requested on the page in millimetres. Check these against the diagram and your project documents, then choose the quantity of L bars required. Add your configured product to the basket and continue through checkout.
Treat each different size as a separate requirement, even when all the bars share Shape Code 11. One leg may have a different specified length from the other, so do not assume the dimensions should match. For orders containing several bar references, our schedule upload route lets you submit the details together for a quotation.
L Bars and Shape Code 11 Explained
“L bar” is a plain English description of reinforcement with a right-angle bend. Shape Code 11 identifies that particular arrangement of two legs. It does not prescribe a single overall size, diameter or structural application.
The product diagram connects the A and B references to the corresponding legs. Match those references to your drawings rather than estimating sizes from the image or copying a previous order without checking it. If a dimension or bar specification is missing, ask your engineer to confirm the requirement. Product selection should follow the design, not replace it.
