Here, it's 3 times the depth or 600mm, not 300.

Ii question, it's said should not exceed.

Means it's maximum limit. 3d is minimum. It should not be less than 3d and more than 6d. Right.

3d or 300mm for main steel.
5d or 300mm for distribution steel.
As per the latest Amendment of IS456.

The same qn was asked in a recent Kerala psc exam. The key showed 6 times as an answer. Is there any explanation for it to be 6 times?
