Difference between round bar and threaded steel in use
Because the surface has a thread shape, it can increase the firm bond with the concrete. The longitudinal reinforcement and stirrups shall be used preferentially in the concrete members.
Because steel for low alloy steel, its price is higher than that of low carbon steel, or construction units, design units, often on the general civil construction of the "practical" point of view, reduce the quality of the project, and the use of low carbon steel instead of rebar. For large engineering projects, often bribed "project inspector after" to replace "Choulianghuanzhu rib steel bar, reduce the construction cost.
The rebar is much higher than the ordinary, and the low carbon steel rounds are much higher. The heat treated steel is much stronger than the low carbon round steel, nearly twice or even higher.
