2. Concrete is the strongest material when it comes to compression. Anyone related to construction industry knows this fact very well. But what about tensile strength? Is concrete equally strong when it comes to tensile strength? The answer is no. Compression is the force required to squeeze something together, whereas, tension refers to the force required to pull something apart. Concrete is a very good material to handle compression forces but weak when it comes to tensile forces. So, how to provide tensile strength in a concrete structure? The answer is simple; put rebar in concrete. Rebar is a commonly used name for reinforcing steel bar inducing tensile strength in concrete. It is formed from different grades and alloys of the steel. Rebar is manufactured with ridges so that concrete can easily adhere to it when poured upon. Rebar has several characteristics and one of them is corrosion resistance. Due to this property, rebar is widely used in constructing buildings. http://www.steelconstructiondetailing.com/contactus.html 2

4. Strength of Rebar As mentioned above, rebar offers tensile strength to the concrete. Apart from this, it has several other advantages that make it a better choice to be used along with the concrete. And these are: Durability : Rebar is extremely durable which means it does not break easily when external forces are applied to it. It does not get affected by the climate changes and this is the reason why rebar structures have a longer life. Rebar can also withstand its original shape under fire. http://www.steelconstructiondetailing.com/contactus.html 4

5. Resistance to Corrosion : Resistance to corrosion and rust is a very important physical property that a material should possess and rebar has it. Rebar does not get affected even by heavy rains. Not only rains, rebar is resistant to chlorine as well making it a good choice for reservoirs and dams. Reduced Thickness : The thickness of rebar can be reduced to a great extent. When used in concrete, the thickness of the concrete can also be reduced for driveways and garage floors. Concrete is a composite mixture of materials like ashes, aggregates, cement and more. Use of such material adds to the thickness of the concrete. But when rebar is used, it not only makes the slabs thinner but also provides strength to it. http://www.steelconstructiondetailing.com/contactus.html 5

7. Rebar Shop Drawings: Inevitable For Quality Construction Rebar offers more strength to concrete as already discussed above. But also important are the rebar shop drawings to simplify the construction project. Rebar shop drawings are subcontractors to explain fabrication and installation process. There are several important points one needs to consider while getting Rebar Drawing Service: produced by contractors and http://www.steelconstructiondetailing.com/contactus.html 7

8. ⚫Both 2D and 3D drawings are available for use. But one needs to decide between the two based on project preference. Both the drawings have their own advantages and disadvantages, and so for what reason they are used really matters. ⚫Reports are comprehensive and they can be obtained along with the rebar shop drawings with details on scheduling. ⚫Contractors working with rebar shop drawings may develop questions from time to time. To avoid any confusion or guesswork, annotations are also provided on request. http://www.steelconstructiondetailing.com/contactus.html 8
