Earthquake Resistant TMT Bars
Rubicon produces earthquake resistant TMT bars meant for reinforced concrete buildings that can withstand seismic forces. Our TMT bars provide the necessary features of strength and ductility to bear deformation of a structure during ground movement. Their flexibility to stretch under load without breaking is important in seismic design, where the reinforcement of a concrete structure must ensure its functionality under tough loading conditions.
We perform analysis of our TMT bars in terms of elongation, tensile strength, and bending performance. Sufficient elongation allows for the deformation of reinforcement in a case of practically any stress condition. Bending performance helps to determine TMT bars’ bending resistance. All of these properties are significant when beams, columns, and other reinforced concrete members remain functional during earthquakes.
Rubicon TMT : Meeting Quality Standards
At Rubicon, we concentrate on mechanical properties that are of importance to seismic engineering. Elongation, tensile strength, and bending performance of the TMT bars have been tested to understand the capability of the product to withstand stress and deformation.
We are proud to have acquired the Thermex License for 2026-2027, reflecting our right to use Thermex technology. We pay much attention to the mechanical properties of our TMT bars and apply them to specific uses where strength and ductility play an important role.
