COEM Ribbed Bar (CRB) is a reinforcement bar where the ribs act as a thread. This allows the bar to be cut at any point and to fit various threaded inserts, couplers, ferrules etc.
This provides greater flexibility than other traditional reinforcement methods, creating significant labour savings onsite.
Depth, Edge Distance Effects
The design strength of the anchoring system is dependent on:
A. Minimum Edge distances: Edge distances to be taken into account refer to Table (Table A) for details on calculator procedure (Tension shear capacity)
B. COEM CRB Inserts are designed to provide appropriate embedment to develop the Min. ultimate steel tensile capacity of the bar in concrete (32MPa).
C. Concrete compressive strength.
D. Spacing effects need to be taken into account. Note Refer to table (Table A)

Starter Bars
Comparison TableCOEM CRB Starter Bars vs N-bar Starter Bars
COEM CRB starter bars are designed to provide full strength connections between precast/tilt-up concrete panels, insitu suspended floors and floor slabs. The system comprises COEM CRB Ferrules, COEM CRB Starter Bars, purpose designed Ferrule Chairs, Antenna Caps and Nailing Plates.
The COEM CRB system is suitable for a wide range of applications, delivers great flexibility, strength, user friendly and saves valuable time at a competitive price.
COEM CRB systems will outperform the traditional common hooked bar system used in cantilevered wall connections.
