Ensuring the structural integrity of buildings is crucial in a world where urbanisation is drastically changing skylines. The integrity of structures is seriously threatened by earthquakes or any other type of sudden natural disaster. Govvinda’s earthquake-resistant TMT bars (thermo-mechanically treated) are becoming an increasingly demanding product, making them the ideal choice for engineers in the market.
The features that make the TMT bars resistant to earthquakes are as follows:
- Higher ductility and flexibility:
The most significant feature that helps in earthquake resistance is the ductility and flexibility of the bars. The ability of the TMT bars to bend at their maximum potential defines their ductility. This feature is beneficial during massive natural calamities, especially earthquakes. During such time, the base of the building starts shaking, resulting in the formation of extensive pressure in the building structure. At this time, the ductility or flexibility of the TMT bars helps in absorbing the pressure by equally distributing them throughout the bar.
- Intense tensile strength:
The increased tensile strength of Govvinda TMT bars is a remarkable attribute that helps the building withstand high pressure and stress during an earthquake. This helps the high-rise buildings from any kind of sudden rupture. This offers an extra layer of protection against seismic-induced damage, minimising the risk of brittle failure.
- Resistance to corrosion:
The corrosion resistance properties that are infused in our Govvinda TMT bars directly benefit construction projects to resist earthquakes or any such impactful natural disasters. The coastal areas or the earthquake-prone areas require earthquake-resistant bars in their infrastructures that will offer superior strength due to their anti-corrosive properties to the buildings.
- Extensive bond strength:
The strength of the bonds between the concrete and the reinforcement plays a vital role in the ability of reinforced concrete development at the time of seismic events. The Govvinda TMT bars, along with the ribbed texture of their surface and the advanced bonding features, guarantee strong anchorage in the matrix of the concrete, and they also enhance the entire structural firmness to withstand seismic forces.
The various TMT bars of Govvinda, including FE 550SD TMT rebars or FE 500D, consist of all the mentioned features, and using them will make your home stay intact even during extreme natural calamities. The enhanced ductility, flexibility, weldability, and superior strength of the TMT bars make them the best TMT bars in India. Top-rated engineers and constructors always suggest choosing Govvinda TMT bars over any other steel bars available in the market.
