Steel supply at risk after ministers refuse to call in Chatham plans

A key steel reinforcement supplier is “considering its next steps” after ministers declined to call in a decision to redevelop its only UK production site. Steel giant ArcelorMittal, which claims to produce 30 per cent of the country’s steel reinforcement, told Construction News in May… The post Steel supply at risk after ministers refuse to call in Chatham plans appeared first on Construction News.

Reinforced Concrete: Strength and Durability for Modern Construction

The post Reinforced Concrete: Strength and Durability for Modern Construction appeared first on UK Construction Blog. Reinforced concrete is a widely used construction material that combines the strengths of two components: concrete and steel reinforcement. Concrete, a strong and durable material, excels in resisting compression forces but has relatively low tensile strength. By incorporating steel reinforcement, the composite material gains additional tensile strength, shear resistance, and ductility, making it an ideal […]

Steel group welcomes extension of rebar anti-dumping measures

The British Association of Reinforcement (BAR) has welcomed the government’s decision to extend anti-dumping measures on Chinese steel reinforcement.

Practical Engineering - Does Rebar rust, 25092018

While steel reinforcement solves one of concrete’s greatest limitations, it creates an entirely new problem: Corrosion of embedded steel rebar is the most common form of concrete deterioration. There are lots of ways to combat this problem, a few of which we discuss/demonstrate in this video, including fiber reinforced concrete, adequate protective cover, and fiber reinforced polymer bars

Undecided - How Graphene Could Solve Our Concrete Problem, 19072022

Is Graphene the Future of Eco Friendly Concrete? Graphene is considered one of the most important breakthroughs in material science since its discovery. This “wonder material” was widely overhyped, and still hasn’t lived up to its potential. We can now see more concrete and realistic applications hitting the market. What if we could cut down carbon (CO2) emissions from cement production by 20% and make cheaper and more powerful EV batteries using graphene battery technology?

Civil Tutor - Bar Bending Schedule Basics; BBS of Steel Reinforcement

This video lecture discusses the basics of bar bending schedule; bar bending schedule of steel reinforcement; and the various sizes of reinforcement bars used

Civil Engineering - Difference between Plain bar and Deformed bar, 01032019

This brief video explains the main properties and key differences between a plain reinforcement bar and a deformed reinforcement bar.

What is Reinforced Concrete? - Bare Essentials of Reinforced Concrete with Prof Tim Ibell Pt1

Professor Ibell is Associate Dean at the Faculty of Engineering and Design at the University of Bath. In this video he describes the underlying reasons why we reinforce concrete, how concrete and steel work together and the main principles that engineers apply to produce reinforced concrete structures. Learning outcomes The compression and tension effects of loading a concrete beam. How steel counters the weakness of concrete in tension. A new material call reinforced concrete.
