Cover is the distance from the surface of the concrete to the surface of the reinforcement bar.
Nominal cover (Cnom) is the cover that the designer, and steel fixer tries to achieve.
Minimum cover (Cmin) is the absolute minimum cover that must be maintained for durability reasons after taking into account deviations in as built cover. Acceptable values of Cmin are given by BS8500 and EN 206. (Warning prior to BS8500, and EN206 minimum cover was also used as a term to describe nominal cover to the outer layer of bars).
Δc is the cover tolerance. (Cnom must be >= Cmin + Δc)
Note: bar bending/cutting tolerance for bars fitting between two fixed faces (defined in BS8666) is allowed for separately by reducing the scheduled dimensions of bars fitting between two fixed faces by +5mm (bending) +25mm (cutting) in the bar schedules.

How can I build a patio cover on existing concrete?
To build a patio cover on existing concrete, you can use anchor bolts to secure the cover to the concrete. First, measure and mark the placement of the cover on the concrete. Then, drill holes for the anchor bolts and attach the cover frame to the concrete using the bolts. Finally, install the roofing material to complete the patio cover.

How do you increase concrete cover to existing column?
To increase the concrete cover on an existing column, you can apply a layer of shotcrete or form a new concrete jacket around the column. First, clean the surface of the existing concrete to ensure proper bonding. Then, create forms to contain the new concrete, ensuring that the additional cover meets the required thickness. Finally, pour or spray the new concrete mix and allow it to cure adequately.
How can I cover a concrete patio effectively?
To cover a concrete patio effectively, you can consider options such as laying outdoor rugs, installing interlocking deck tiles, or applying a concrete overlay. These methods can help improve the appearance and functionality of your patio.
What is nominal mix design?
Nominal mixes are those proportioned by the volume of the main ingredients and usually written in order of the ingredients thus Cement:Sand: Coarse aggregate (stone, chippings). So a 1:3:6 is a nominal mix containing 1 volume of cement, 3 volumes of sand and 6 volumes of coarse aggregate. Gauge boxes are generally used to batch the ingredients. The problem with these types of mixes is that the quality of the concrete is entirely dependant on the quality of the materials. In other words, if you use the same gauge boxes to weigh ingredients from different sources, you will most likely have different concrete qualities. Designed mixes on the other hand are specified as a grade the producer of the concrete has to achieve usually in terms of compressive strength but may include other criteria (size of the stone, minimum amount of cement, flexural strength, air content etc). So a grade 30 concrete will be the same whether batched in Kansas City, Karachi, Kingston-Upon-Hull or Kinshasa
