Emirates Steel Rebar
Emirates Steel prides itself as a leading producer of reinforcing bar
(rebar). A long steel product used extensively in the engineering and
construction sectors, our rebar is universally recognized for its high
quality characteristics. The superior quality of iron ore used in the
production, utilize advanced manufacturing processes and rigorous
implementation of quality control procedures, that evidently contribute to
the product’s local and international reputation and applications.
Overview
Rebar is necessary to compensate for the fact that whilst concrete is
strong in compression, it is relatively weak in tension. By casting rebar
into concrete, it is able to carry tensile loads and so increase overall
strength.
Main Uses
-
Primary reinforcement: Used to provide resistance to support design
loads.
-
Secondary reinforcement: Used for durability and aesthetic purposes by
providing localised resistance to limit cracking and temperature-induced
stresses.
-
Provide resistance to concentrated loads, spreading it through a wider
area.
-
Assist other steel bars in accommodating their loads by holding them in
the correct position.
-
External steel tie bars to constrain and reinforce masonry structures,
sometimes as a means of building conservation.
-
Reinforced masonry: Some masonry blocks and bricks include voids to
accommodate rebar to carry tensile loads. The rebar is secured in place
using grout.
