Thermo Mechanically Treated (TMT) Bar, is also called a Reinforcing Bar or Rebar in CIVIL ENGINEERING terminology. TMT Bar is a high-strength reinforcement bar with a tough outer core and soft inner core. Today, normal steel bars are completely taken over by TMT Steel bars for reinforcing purposes, all thanks to their strength and flexibility.

Here are a few properties of TMT Steel bars that make them a clear winner in the construction industry –

Strength – TMT Bars provide 20% extra strength to the building structure owing to the ribs on the surface. These ribs help in reducing the slippage in concrete which results in a stronger bond with concrete.

Flexibility – TMT bars are extremely flexible which allows them to endure high temperature and humidity levels. In addition, they do not crack or break even after turning and bending 180 degrees.

Elongation – The higher the percentage of elongation, the lesser is the chances of damage to construction structures. TMT bars with their hard outer layer and soft inner-core can elongate in a way that makes construction structures strong and flexible, well-insured from the dangers of natural calamities, like earthquakes and so on.

Seismic Resistance – With its excellent concrete bond of soft ferrite- pearlite core and reinforcement strength, TMT bars can firm up the tensile strength of construction structures. This also allows them to absorb a greater amount of energy released during an earthquake, and also ensure the longevity of building structures.

Cost-Effective – Thanks to higher elongation, light-weight, and flexibility, TMT bars are easy to transport, maintain, and also easy to create and assemble the required steel frames in the manufacturing industry. This in turn increases the pace of construction and ensures better cost-efficiencies, when compared to other steel bars.

Eco-Friendly – With a recycling rate of 88%, Steel proves to be the best Green Warrior in the construction industry. With all the advantages mentioned above, TMT Steel Bars are even more easier to recycle in comparison to other steel bars.
