Rebar Production
Rebar Production
At the present time, one of the common material found in a construction field is the rebar. Rebar is
a short term word for "reinforcing bar", and can also be called as "reinforcing steel" or "reinforcement steel".
This is widely used in the construction, together with the cement concrete, because it resists the tension
stress while the latter resists the compression stress which made it reliable enough to make any shape and
size for the construction industry. This can be said that rebar are essential to ensure safety and keep the
With the video I had watched, I was able to learn how the rebar were being produced. The video
started showing the transferring of steel to the production machine, and then it was melted down into a
liquid form by going under an extreme amount of heat. And then it went through to more openings to give
the rebar its shape. When the steel has been properly shaped, it was then cut into length.
Before I watched the video, I had no idea how rebar were produced, what I just know is that it is
made of steel. This video is very educating because as a civil engineer student, I should gain atleast the
basic knowledge on how materials in a construction field are being produced. I believe that steel
reinforcement bars are very important as a construction material because it has the properties that make it
work effectively with the concrete, which is very relevant in constructing structures.
