3. Know the Types of Steel Bars
Thermo Mechanically Treated(TMT) or Thermex Steel Bar(TMX) are the
latest technology reinforcement steel with high flexible and strong than
their previous type. They are considered as Fe415, Fe500, Fe500D, Fe550
for example yield strength of 415, 500 and 550 N/sq mm individually.
Higher grade are also accessible.
4. Need to Use TMT Steel Bar in India
Use of TMT Steel bars in construction has improved throughout recent
years. This makes the bars solid and flexible. While assembling a TMT
Steel Rod, it needs to go through a layered cooling period. This flexibility
helps the rod to bend properly.
5. Tests to Check Steel Quality
• Tensile test
• Compression test
• Bending test
• Brinell hardness test
• Rockwell hardness test
• Impact test
• Torsion test
• Shear test
6. Specifications of TMT Bar

8. Qualities of TMT Bar
•High power
•Higher elongation (which makes it safe for earthquake-prone areas)
•High Flexibility/ re-bending properties
•Corrosion resistance
•Good binding ability
9. Hire Trusted
Manufacturer
Always hire a trusted and efficient
architect as well as steel company for a
successful construction project. Select
a top TMT bar manufacturer for best
construction materials that will be
needed in a smooth civil construction.
