Abbreviations:-
HYSD-
High Yield Strength Deformed Steel
TMT-Thermo
Mechanically Treated
Note:-
(1.)
In FE: 415 Steel, the no.
415 indicates their minimum yield stress.
(2.)
We have also seen two
types of steel FE: 550, that means the steel grade is same, but
FE: 500 D is
more ductile than FE: 500.
(3.)
We should always prefer
FE:500D instead of FE:500, because FE:500D steel is enable to withstand the
sudden load absorption capacity, which will helps to sustain the structure
safely during earthquakes, cyclone, tsunamis etc.
(4.)
Steel reinforcement bar
is used in concrete to improve the tensile strength of concrete. (Because steel
is good in compression but weak in tension)
(5.)
Steel reinforcement bar
is strong in both tension and compression.
(6.)
Length of steel bar=12
meter
(7.)
Steel reinforcement bar
is coated with zinc.
(8.)
At high temperature steel
reinforcement will melt. So, we are not welded the reinforcement.
(9.)
During storage of steel,
we should make a platform and steel is kept on it.
(10.)
For remove the rust wire
brush will used before any further work of steel.
