Let us start with a fundamental question – what essential factors to account for while buying TMT bars? But before this, why are TMT Bars necessary for all construction projects? Due to the various advantages of TMT steel like high strength, durability, high quality, longevity, safety, and high yield strength, all concrete structures require a TMT bar. It means that in the construction industry, one building material will never turn obsolete and, that is TMT Steel Bar.
So, what should one look for before purchasing TMT Bars? Here are some key points that must be taken into consideration during such times:
- Grade Check: TMT Steel Bar is available in different grades. The higher the grade, the greater is the strength of a TMT Bar. A-One Gold TMT Bars are manufactured in grades like Fe 500, Fe 500D, Fe 550D. That is why, in most earthquake prone areas, TMT Bars are preferred.
- Quality Check: Always check BIS certification of TMT steel. All products should conform to international standards of quality. A-One Gold Steel TMT Bars adhere to IS:1786 Grade.
- Cost Check: Look for cost-effective products. And invest in the quality product.
Now that we are acquainted with what to look for in TMT bars, it’s time we understand how to calculate the weight of TMT bars.
Well, TMT rebars are available in U bent or straight rods. And there are different sizes of steel bars available in the market. Their length differs in the range of 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 16mm, 20mm, 25mm, and 32mm.
Few important points about TMT Bar Weight
- The standard length of rods are 12 meters
- The BIS Standard IS-1786 from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) describes specifications of high strength deformed steel bars and wires for concrete reinforcement.
- TMT bars manufactured in different diameters
- TMT Bars Weight is measured in Kilogram or Quintal or Tonnes
