In the history of architecture, bridges are the epitome of engineering marvels. TMT (Thermo-Mechanically Treated Bars) play an integral role in enhancing bridge resilience and durability. Whether it’s short-distance or long-distance bridges, flexibility defines constructional success. However, many contractors still need to be aware of the rightful choice of TMT Bars.
Maan Shakti offers the highest quality TMT Bars to support diverse infrastructural needs. If you are a bridge contractor, this blog piece helps you understand TMT Bars in detail. Let’s delve into a more significant discussion.
What is the Reason for Flexibility in TMT Bars?
TMT Bars go through a rigorous heating and cooling process that enhances their resilience to temperature fluctuations. Our Thermo mechanically Treated Steel includes a softer inner core and a tough outer surface that delivers superior flexibility. So, what contributes to this flexibility?
The continuous cooling process refers to water quenching, while thermal treatment involves heating operations. During water quenching and thermal operations, the elongation of TMT Bars achieves a maximum stage. The highly elongated TMT Bars are ductile and thereby offer a high tensile advantage in the long run.
Here’s how flexible TMT Bars Strengthens Bridge Construction
High Ductility Offers Structural Independence
The ductile nature of TMT Bars provides architectural freedom by combining creativity with engineering excellence. Highly elongated TMT Bars allow architects to explore more unconventional designs without damaging any structural integrity.
Our Fe 550D Graded TMT Bars deliver high flexibility and are ideal for boosting the overall structural strength of your bridge. Since bridges are susceptible to consistent fluctuations of physical pressure, ductile TMT Bars support your strategic architectural designs.
Weldability Simplifies Complex Geometrical Shapes
The tensile strength of Thermo mechanically Treated Steel increases weldability within complex architectural designs. Cantilever Bridges, with intertwining geometric shapes, require maximum support in distributing loads.
Our TMT Bars are highly weldable to support complex geometrical shapes in your Cantilever Bridges. Weldable TMT Bars reduce the need to use excessive numbers and save construction costs in the long run.
Reduced Dependence on Joints
Superior Elongation of TMT Bars reduces the need for excessive use of joints in constructional projects. Sometimes, excessive joint inclusion increases the load of the bridge, making it difficult for the beams to support.
Our TMT Bars will reduce the need for excessive joint inclusion within architectural designs. This property helps maintain the structural integrity of bridges and reduces the risk of vulnerabilities.
Provide Seismic Resilience
Earthquake-prone regions in India like Gujarat, Assam and Manipur are susceptible to risks of damage and casualties. However, India’s rapidly progressing construction sector has facilitated structurally advanced solutions.
Our TMT Bars provide maximum seismic resilience by delivering anticorrosive and ductile properties. Their ribbed surfaces possess high gripping ability, thereby preventing untimely concrete cracking and slippage from internal structures.
Thermo Mechanically Treated Steel helps bridges withstand seismic pressure by absorbing or dissipating kinetic energy. This energy dissipation or distribution reduces the direct load on the bridge and thereby prevents deadly collapse.
Reduced Maintenance
Our Fe 550 and Fe 550D TMT Bars offer maximum resilience to your construction. The anti-corrosive nature of 550-graded TMT bars decreases the chances of friction, and cross-ribbed surfaces enhance gripping ability with concrete. An increased bonding with concrete reduces the risks of cracks and untimely damage to infrastructure. As a result, the need for frequent maintenance will decrease, infusing an aspect of economic sustainability.
How Maan Shakti’s TMT Bars Provide Sustainable Constructions
Maan Shakti functions as one of the best TMT providers in Kolkata. Our TMT Bars deliver high resilience, and their chemical compositions are equally sustainable.
