Why Fe500D TMT Rebars are most suitable for Building Construction in Earthquake Zones?
There are several grades of TMT available as per Bureau of Indian Standards (IS 1786:2008) namely – 1) Fe-415/ Fe-415D, 2) Fe-500/ Fe-500D, 3) Fe-550/ Fe-550D & 4) Fe-600. Where D means Ductile, ie grades with D are having high ductility compared to normal grades. TMT rebars used in high seismic zones must also conform…
