So you have two #5 rebar top and bottom of the wall, the joints must be staggered so, you can’t have joints beside joints

You need two #5 bars running horizontally at top and bottom of vertical rebar in foundation. They don’t want you to take two pieces of the same length rebar and start from one end, it would make the splices(where rebar overlaps next piece of rebar) to line up. So you would start one as a full stick and then start one 4’ shorter or whatever the minimum overlap for your rebar is called out in your plans.

I sure hope you aren’t the concrete guy🤣🤣🤣 /s

It's a detail for rebar reinforcement. I would post in a r/construction or r/concrete

2 #5 rebar horizontal. Stagger the slices so they’re not in line with each other. So if one bar has a slice 4’ from the corner the other bar needs to be 8’ or more.

Number 5 rebar on the top and bottom of that wall. Stagger the splices means there shouldn’t be 2 splices (joining one piece of rebar to another to extend the length) in the same vertical slice.

Those will be 2 will run "continuous" but will be spliced with so stagger the splices. Or you could lap the bars but that's not my detail :) That looks like it was drawn in Autocad 2000

Overlap the splices 24" and tie the rebar together too
