Corrosion, in the construction dictionary, refers to the deterioration of metals resulting from environmental impacts and reactions of one metal with another. Considering the construction history, corrosion is more than just an aesthetic problem. Beyond the foul appearance, it has dangerous impacts on buildings, pipelines, and other equipment. Fortunately, the mechanical treatment conducted during the...
The TMT bars industry has experienced many technological shifts and developments over the past years. However, steady market demand, low entry barriers, and limited competition have encouraged many industry players to venture into the industry and become market leaders. This article delves into identifying the industry’s key characteristics, trends, and prospects, offering engineers a unique...
550D or Fe 550D TMT is a grade of thermo mechanically treated steel bars as defined by IS: 1786. ‘Fe’ is the symbol of iron, and D stands for ductility. 550 N/mm^2 is the minimum yield stress in MPA required to bring about an elongation, i.e., the maximum strength of the steel bars. This means...
In the realm of construction and infrastructure development, the demand for high-quality building materials has never been greater. TMT (Thermo-Mechanically Treated) bars, known for their exceptional strength, ductility, and durability, have emerged as the go-to choice for reinforcing concrete structures. At the heart of TMT bar production lies a critical component, the steel billets. In...
A house is an investment of a lifetime. When you are on the venture to build a new home for yourself and your family, you must make sure the house will be worth the monetary investment you would make. There is no scope for compromise when you are investing in your dream house. While creating...
The manufacturing process of TMT Bars is a bit complex. These bars are high-strength reinforcing steel with a rigid outer core and a softer inner core. The steel wires are passed through a rolling stand in the first step of the manufacturing process. These rolled steel wires are then passed through the Tempcore water cooling...
