1. When reinforcement required is 0.00, only diaphragm chord tension reinforcement is required.
2. Diaphragm chord tension steel area shall be added to bond beam uplift steel area for total required bond beam area of steel. Select appropriate bar size and number of bars from Table R609.2.2C.

Reinforcement shall be located in the top of bond beams and in the top and bottom of bond beams also serving as lintels.
.
Corner continuity. Reinforcement in bond beams shall be continuous around corners as detailed in Figure R609.2.4.
Exception: In bond beams requiring two reinforcing bars, one bar shall be continuous around corners.
FIGURE R609.2.4
CORNER CONTINUITY OF BOND BEAM AND WALL REINFORCEMENT
Precast bond beams shall properly receive and retain all vertical wall reinforcement. Precast bond beams shall contain the minimum amount of continuous reinforcement set forth in Sections R609.2.2 and R609.6 as applicable and shall be reinforced at joints o act as drag struts and diaphragm chords.
One reinforcement bar shall be provided in each corner, including interior corners and corners created by changes in wall direction or offsetting of walls.
A minimum of one bar of the size used for vertical wall reinforcement shall be provided on each side of openings wider than 6 feet (1829 mm). If more vertical reinforcement is interrupted by an opening than is provided beside the opening (total in the first and second cells adjacent to the opening), one-half of the equivalent area of reinforcement interrupted by the opening shall be placed on each side of the opening. This reinforcement shall be placed within the first and/or second cells beside the opening.
R609.3.2.1 Girders.At least one reinforcement bar shall be provided where girders or girder trusses bear on masonry walls.
Vertical reinforcement shall be provided as set forth in Tables R609.3.3.A-1 through Table R609.3.3A-4 and R609.3.3.B-1 through R609.3.3B-4, as applicable.

Notes:
1. The cumulative shear wall segment length for each side of the building shall be equal to or greater than the tabular shear wall length required. If the required shear wall segment length provided is not one continuous shear wall segment, the total shear wall length required shall be increased by 0.67 feet (8 inches) (203 mm) for each additional shear wall segment making up the total shear wall length on a side.
2. The minimum shear wall segment length shall be 2 feet-0 inches (610 mm). Values less than 2 feet-0 inches are shown only for summation of shear wall segments and for interpolation purposes. A grouted cell with vertical reinforcement of the size indicated is required at each end of every shear wall segment.
3. Other than incidental utility penetrations, shearwall piers and shearwall segments shall not contain openings with a maximum horizontal or vertical dimension of 5 inches (127 mm) for piers and 12 inches (305 mm) for portions of shearwall segments above and below piers. The total area of openings in any one segment of shearwall shall not exceed 144 square inches (92 903 mm2).
4. Required shearwall lengths normal (perpendicular) to the ridge are per lineal foot of building length. Multiply tabular values by building length distance between adjacent shear walls perpendicular to the ridge if interior shear walls are used for total shear wall length required.
5. Shear wall lengths are based on shear wall segment heights of 80 inches (2032 mm) (height from the floor to the top of the highest opening adjacent to the shear segment—corners and openings as permitted by Note 3 of this table are not considered for the purpose of this measurement). For shear segment heights other than 80 inches (2032 mm), multiply tabular length values as follows:
| Segment Height (inches) | Length Multiplier |

| 96 | 1.19 |

Notes:
1. The cumulative shear wall segment length for each side of the building shall be equal to or greater than the tabular shear wall length required. If the required shear wall segment length provided is not one continuous shear wall segment, the total shear wall length required shall be increased by 0.67 feet (8 inches) (203 mm) for each additional shear wall segment making up the total shear wall length on a side.
2. The minimum shear wall segment length shall be 2 feet-0 inches (610 mm). Values less than 2 feet-0 inches (610 mm) are shown only for summation of shear wall segments and for interpolation purposes. A grouted cell with vertical reinforcement of the size indicated is required at each end of every shear wall segment.
3. Other than incidental utility penetrations, shearwall piers and shearwall segments shall not contain openings with a maximum horizontal or vertical dimension of 5 inches (127 mm) for piers and 12 inches (305 mm) for portions of shearwall segments above and below piers. The total area of openings in any one segment of shearwall shall not exceed 144 square inches (92 903 mm2).
4. Required shearwall lengths normal (perpendicular) to the ridge are per lineal foot of building length. Multiply tabular values by building length distance between adjacent shear walls perpendicular to the ridge if interior shear walls are used for total shear wall length required.
5. Shear wall lengths are based on shear wall segment heights of 80 inches (2032 mm) (height from the floor to the top of the highest opening adjacent to the shear segment—corners and openings as permitted by Note 3 of this table are not considered for the purpose of this measurement). For shear segment heights other than 80 inches (2032 mm), multiply tabular length values as follows:
| Segment Height (inches) | Length Multiplier |
| 88 | 1.09 |
| 96 | 1.19 |
| 104 | 1.28 |
| 112 | 1.37 |

Notes:
1. The cumulative shear wall segment length for each side of the building shall be equal to or greater than the tabular shear wall length required. If the required shear wall segment length provided is not continuous the total shear wall length required shall be increased by 8 inches (203 mm) for each additional shear wall segment on a side.
2. Minimum shear wall segment length shall be 2 feet-0 inches (610 mm). A grouted cell with reinforcing steel shall be provided at each end of every shear wall segment. A minimum length of 24 inches (610 mm) of solid wall segment, extending the full height of each wall, shall be provided at exterior corners of exterior walls. A fully grouted cell with reinforcing steel shall be provided at each end of every shear wall segment.
3. Portions of walls with openings shall not be considered part of the shear wall length.
4. Required shearwall lengths perpendicular to the ridge are per lineal foot of building length. Multiply tabular values by building length for total shear wall length required.
5. Shearwall lengths for No. 4 reinforcement are based on shearwall segment height of 80 inches (2032 mm) and shearwall segment length of 24 inches (610 mm).
6. Shearwall lengths for No. 5 reinforcement are based on shearwall segment height of 96 inches (2438 mm) and shearwall segment length of 24 inches (610 mm).
