Benefits
⦁ Class N
⦁ Excellent strength to weight ratio
⦁ Efficient shape
⦁ Complies with associated standards
⦁ Steel has high modulus of Elasticity. This helps the steel to stretch in tension without breaking and regain its shape on removal of load.
⦁ Ductility of steel is high. i.e. Steel rebar will behave ductile under higher loads.
⦁ Steel and concrete has almost same coefficient of thermal expansion. Due to this both (concrete and steel) will experience same length changes in high temperatures.
⦁ Steel is resistant to rough conditions during transport, storage, bundling and placing on construction site.
⦁ Strong enough to withstand high impact load.
⦁ Structural Steel industry has enough production capacity to meet the demands of construction industry and is available at ease for any house construction.
⦁ Steel can be recycled easily.
