Suryadev Alloys and Power is a leading steel manufacturer in India. It is known for the manufacturing and supplying of TMT rebars.
Rebars stand for reinforcement bars and they have higher tensile strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance than the traditional steel bars. Suryadev steel bars are most sought after as they are manufactured using advanced technologies and have superior properties. They can be customized to different grades and sizes based on specific requirements.
Read the blog to know how Suryadev TMT rebars drive the safety and resilience of buildings.
Importance of TMT rebars in Construction
TMT (Thermo-mechanically treated) rebars are reinforcement bars that provide superior tensile strength and offer support to concrete structures. They are manufactured in different shapes and sizes, though they mostly carry a round shape. They have a ribbed surface which strengthens their bonding with the concrete.
Usually, concrete has strong compression and weak tension. The rebar support helps them withstand the high tensile stress while protecting the building from stress, cracks, and deformation. This increases the stability, durability, and structural integrity of the buildings.
How are Suryadev Steel TMT rebars manufactured?
At Suryadev, we follow an advanced manufacturing process which in turn contributes to their durability, ductile strength, and structural integrity. The following are the key steps followed in our manufacturing facility.
1. Raw material selection
The manufacturing of TMT rebars starts with the selection of raw materials. The steel billets are carefully chosen to meet the required quality standards. The chemical composition impacts the ductility and strength of the rebar.
2. Heating
The steel billets are then heated at very high temperatures ranging between 1100-1200 degrees Celsius. Uniform heating helps achieve consistency in the final output. This also increases the malleability of the steel rebar.
3. Hot rolling
Once the steel billets are heated, they are passed through rolling mills. They help reduce the cross-sectional area while shaping them into long bars. To ensure malleability and maintain the mechanical properties, this shaping process is carried out at high temperatures.
4. Quenching
After heating and rolling, the rebars are then quenched and rapidly cooled down. They are passed through water spray systems. Immediate cooling helps create a hard outer surface while the inside of the rebar remains hot, soft, and flexible.
5. Self-tempering
The rebars are then subject to a self-tempering process. The heat from the inside layer of the rebar tempers the outer layer. This creates a balance between hardness and ductility on the outer surface of the rebar. They are cooled down further under the atmospheric temperature. This helps strengthen their microstructural architecture.
6. Quality checks
Once they cool down completely, the rebars are then subject to stringent quality checks. At Suryadev, we conduct various tests to assess the properties of the TMT rebars.
5 Reasons to use Suryadev Steel TMT rebars
Here are the unique properties of Suryadev steel TMT rebars that help ensure the structural integrity and resilience of buildings.
1. Superior strength and load-bearing capacity
High-rise buildings are exposed to high-speed winds and are vulnerable to seismic activities. So, they are subject to stress.
As the Suryadev TMT rebars are manufactured following advanced thermo-mechanical technologies, they have enormous strength. They also help distribute the loads uniformly. This enables the high-rise buildings to withstand the vertical loads while improving the structural integrity of the buildings. So, they help improve the strength and load-bearing ability of the concrete used in high-rise construction.
2. Minimises cracks and deformation
Usually, in concrete, localised stress leads to cracks and deformation. As rebars are cooled down rapidly through quenching, they have a strong outer layer and ductile inner one. This increases their resilience to mechanical stress which is a major concern in high-rise buildings.
As we follow advanced technologies in manufacturing, Suryadev TMT bars have greater ductility and tensile strength. When exposed to stress, they can stretch and get back to their original shape. This elasticity helps absorb the heavy loads while minimising the risk of cracks and deformation.
3. Corrosion resistance
Corrosion remains an important concern in high-rise buildings as they are increasingly exposed to adverse weather conditions. TMT rebars prevent the seepage of water, moisture, and other corrosive agents into the concrete.
The corrosion resistance increases the durability of the high-rise buildings. This property makes Suryadev TMT rebars, a go-to solution for buildings located along the coastal regions in humid environments.
4. Seismic resistance
High-risk buildings are vulnerable to seismic activities like earthquakes. As Suryadev TMT rebars have high ductile strength, they can absorb the stress from disasters like earthquakes.
When exposed to stress, the rebars can bend and adjust without breaking. This ensures the stability and structural integrity of the high-rise buildings and ultimately, the safety of the residents. So, they are ideal for use in coastal and seismically active areas.
5. Fire resistance
Fire safety is a major point of concern in the construction of high-rise buildings. When there is fire, the building should remain intact long enough to support evacuation.
The Suryadev TMT rebars can withstand high temperatures without losing their integral strength. This prevents sudden collapse and offers enough time for occupants to evacuate the building safely when exposed to fire and high temperatures.
