Spacing 1. = L.L.D=350.

2 = 16 x dia of longitudnal bar ( min of 16 or 25 )
= 16x16 = 256.
3 = 300mm,
4 = 48 x transvere reinforcement,

Min of these value is taken;
So it is 16 x 16 =256 or 250.

Diameter of links = 1/4 *25 = 6.25.
So, we take 8 mm diameter.
Spacing value minimum three value( 350 ...16* 25= 400 300mm)
= 350.
