Stirrups in reinforcement are also commonly referred to as "ties." They are used in reinforced concrete to provide confinement and support to vertical reinforcement bars (rebar), helping to maintain the structural integrity and resist shear forces in beams and columns.

I assume they would be tied using tie-wire to the rest of the rebar cage.
In reinforced cement concrete (RCC) work, 2-legged stirrups refer to a type of reinforcement used to provide structural support and improve the shear strength of beams and slabs. They consist of two vertical legs connected by horizontal ties, forming a closed loop that helps confine the concrete and prevent cracking. This configuration enhances the overall stability of the concrete structure by effectively resisting shear forces and tensile stresses. Proper placement and detailing of stirrups are crucial for ensuring the integrity and durability of the RCC elements.
steel n concerte r useless without a bond in beam stirrups resist shear foce in coloumns we mostly neglect shear effect .steel n concerete r useless without a pwerful bond this bond provides stiffness n tomake n to hold reinforcement in one place stirups r provided then concerete is filled to make a strong bond thankz 4rm talha butt..........

Usualy 8mm of stirrups will be used
the top reinforcement of beam (compression face of beam). it is provided to hold the stirrups in place.
it is the clear cover for stirrups. effective cover of the reinforcement = nominal cover+ diameter of stirrups+half diameter of main bars

Stirrups are provided in beams primarily to enhance shear strength and stability. They help resist diagonal tension forces that can lead to shear failure, ensuring the beam can safely carry loads without cracking or collapsing. Additionally, stirrups assist in holding the main reinforcement bars in place, maintaining their position during concrete pouring and curing. Overall, they contribute to the structural integrity and durability of the beam.
Hooded stirrups are traditional stirrups used in horseback riding. They have a hood-shaped top to prevent the foot from slipping through the stirrup. This design provides added safety and security for the rider.
Concrete reinforcement mesh is not called BRC. BRC is the name of a company that supplies reinforcement and it may be that the buyer has specified that it is supplied by BRC.
Yes you can you adjust your stirrups whilst being on a horse
You will see the post tention slabs with out stirrups, they are cutting costs. For a conventional slab where you have 4 bars in your beam, stirrups are the best way to hold the bars in place. Some engineers claim the stirrups add zero structural value to the slab.
