Reinforcing Steel Bar
Most people are familiar with reinforcing steel bar, commonly known as “rebar”. It is used in bridges, buildings, skyscrapers, homes, warehouses and foundations to add strength to concrete structures.
The use of reinforcing steel bar in concrete provides additional strength because concrete has a weaker tensile strength while steel has a stronger tensile and compressive strength. Steel and concrete have similar coefficients of thermal expansion, so concrete structural members reinforced with steel will be subjected to minimal stresses when temperatures change.
Steel is the product of choice due to specific advantages over other materials
Ability to bend - Reinforcing steel can be bent after fabrication. This simplifies construction and provides fast delivery of fabricated materials.
Robustness - Reinforcing steel is strong and durable and can withstand the rigors of construction.
Recyclability - Reinforcing steel can be easily recycled at the end of a structure's design life.
Compatibility with concrete - rebar does not need to be tied directly to the formwork and will not float in the concrete.
