8 Reason Why TMT not HYSD?

TMT bars do not surface flaws when compared with HYSD bars as unlike HYSD bars, as the manufacturing process in the TMT bars does not involve twisting or torsional stress.
TMT Bars consume upto 17% to 20% less amount of steel than HYSD Bars.
TMT bars come with a stronger external layer, something which is missing in HYSD due to ductile nature of the core and hard crystalline surface of TMT steel.
When compared with TMT bars, HYSD bars cannot provide flexibility and ductility, thus limiting their use in different types of construction works.
TMT bars are effective in earthquake- prone areas and withstand better with sudden earthquake schoks and absorption when compared with HYSD bars.
TMT bars are lighter in weight compared to HYSD bars, so the transportation cost of TMT bars are low.
In HYSD Bars residual stress is high and tensile strength is low that causes deformation. In TMT Bars residual stress is low and tensile strength is high for which it do not undergo any deformation.
TMT bars are more corrosion resistant when compared with HYSD bars, due to the following reasons-
Rapid quenching and tempering used in TMT bar manufacturing process.
Low intake of carbon, sulphur & phosphorus TMT Bars are highly resistant to corrosion.

Which TMT bars are best for commercial houses in India?

There are 4 main grades Fe 415, Fe 500, Fe 550, & Fe 600 . According to the IS: 1786 both Fe 500 and Fe 500D are grade TMT steel bars are best for the construction of commercial buildings in India. Let’s decode the grades. ‘Fe’ means the iron. TMT bars are made of iron. “500” indicates the minimum yield stress is 500Nm/mm². “D” in Fe 500 D indicates the ductility. That means these steel bars have a higher percentage of elongation or seismic resistance. Fe 500D and Fe 500 has enhanced specified minimum percentage elongation of 16% and 12% respectively. So, Fe 500 D is more suitable for construction in earthquake zones 3, 4 & 5. Tensile strength(Min) for Fe 500 is 545 N/mm² and for Fe 500D it is 565 N/ mm². Always ensure that the TMT bar you are buying has corrosion-resistance and a water protection coating.
