Reinforcement Bars

Rebars provide tensile strength to concrete members (slabs, beams, columns, foundations). Selection depends on grade, diameter, and compliance with the project’s design standard.
- Grades: Common structural grades include 420–500 MPa yield (e.g., Grade 60 ≈ 420 MPa), with higher grades for optimized designs.
- Diameters: ~10, 12, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40 mm (project specs may vary).
- Rib Pattern: Deformed bars improve bond with concrete; straight bars and stirrups/ties for shear and confinement.
- Cut & Bend: Supply in straight lengths or as cut-and-bent shapes to BBS (bar bending schedule).
- Handling: Store off the ground, protect from contamination; clean rust/scale that affects bond.
- Applications: RCC slabs, beams, columns, footings, raft foundations, retaining walls, bridges.
