Overlapping of reinforcement

Beams:

 The only 50% of reinforcement is overlapped at one place other wise the member will fail because of joints at one particular place when the load is acting on member. The top most rebars (the compression reinforcement ) can be over lapped at center the over lap length should be 40D as shown below
as per the IS 456 the length is calculated as follows

The development length Ld is given by
Ld =(Øσs)/(4τbd)
where
Ø = nominal diameter of the bar,
σs = stress in bar at the section considered at design load, and
τbd = design bond stress given in 2.6.2.1.1.

NOTES
  1. The development length includes anchorage values of hooks in tension reinforcement.
  2. For bars of sections other than circular, the. Development Length should be sufficient to develop the stress in the bar by bond.
The both top and bottom rebars can be over lapped at the column and beam junctions as shown below
to resist the positive moment in continuous members shell extend along the same face of the member into support, to length equal to Ld /3

Columns:

here there are different conditions of over laps in columns
