Sree ately tte) Uv Uses re ( ee Since its launch in 2000, TATA TISCON has been redefining India’s rebar market. It is the first brand in India to introduce TMT rebars with technological support from Morgan, USA. As India’s leading brand of rebars TATA TISCON has been constantly innovating and developing radical solutions in its business. Rebars are specified and assessed from the functional point of view over mainly two dimensions - mechanical properties and chemical properties. The desired mechanical properties e.g. strength, ductility, bendability are achieved by designing the right chemistry and controlling various rolling parameters. As part of the chemistry, any rebar necessarily contains two harmful impurities, Sulphur (S) and Phosphorus (P) in varying levels which reduce the strength of steel in extreme hot and cold conditions. Therefore lowering the content makes the steel bett r. In fact, 70% rebars in India are manufactured by crude processes from scrap by Induction Furnace Route. These processes increase the content of harmful impurities in steel A superior and controlled steel making practice can reduce the levels of these impurities, In the last revision of the Indian Standard of rebars (BIS) in 2008, this aspect has been factored in and a new superior category of rebar called 'D’ has been introduced in the BIS. The step is in the direction of improving the overall quality of steel of Indian steel producers. The BIS guidelines make it an imperative to inform customers about the level of impurities present in rebars that are manufactured through different routes. In view of this development, Tata Steel has introduced a new grade called TATA TISCON 500D where the combined level of Sulphur and Phosphorus is restricted to a maximum of 0.075% to comply with the latest BIS specifications. TATA TISCON is the only rebar, in India which has acquired the ‘Superbrand’ status. tatar ly TISCON ee mnmenwinann em ATOOT JOD TATA TISCON 500D, A PRODUCT FROM TATA STEEL, IS THE NEW GENERATION HIGH STRENGTH RIBBED REINFORCEMENT BAR. IT IS DIFFERENT FROM ORDINARY BARS IN ITS METHOD OF MANUFACTURING AND CONSEQUENTLY, IN ITS COMBINATION OF PROPERTIES. 1. WHY REBAI Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) has become the most easy and effective construction material of modern times. Almost all the residential complexes and individual houses are being constructed with this versatile material. The beauty of this material lies in two aspects — first, the ability of Cement-Concrete to take the desired shape and secondly, the ability of steel reinforcement bars or rebars to resist all kind of forces acting upon a building. Plain Cement Concrete (PCC) without rebars is like a body without bones. Rebars make buildings safe for its residents by tolerating various damaging forces acting on building members e.g. foundations, beams, columns, slabs, etc. These forces are generated because of different loads like the dead load of the building itself, the live load of ‘occupants and their belongings, the wind/storm load, the earthquake load, etc. which act in different combinations at different times. That is why, to make the buildings strong and long-lasting, steel rebars must be of good quality and strength. cee ech eke en Re ee Ram Re Meier Ne ACC ROU uc aa Coe oun eI aay cen TATA TISCON 500D rebars are produced in state-of-the-art plants under close supervision of our frontline eee ea Ui en eee et anager Steel Making-Secondary Refining-Billet Casting route with lowest amount of undesirable impurities and ae CC ic Lt kickers et sc ioe one en una o aeCag ene eta eka ar ca a PIC Rg eC Cee eesy Rec rec oIeR Mencceng Peursem cue Certs PSckaee oe en te oeceeLss furnace, pre-finishing and finishing mill, cold shear to cut bars, roughing mill, intermediate mill and the Pearce Re eet ees eC Moonee Rea eel from steel billets and subjected to PLC controlled CCR rgd Miu ms Peers (a) Quenching - The hot rolled bar leaving the final re ee eon oE Se meee et eau Rr hot and austenitic.

As mentioned in the beginning, Sulphur & Phosphorus (S&P) are harmful impurities in steel. High levels of Phosphorus can lead to ‘cold shortness’ in steel where the steel tends to become very brittle under extreme cold conditions and thus Ree ae ee eee ne oe eC a the melting point of steel gets lowered thereby reducing its strength dramatically under high temperature conditions. However, lower levels of S&P can be achieved only through advanced steel making technology. Such low S&P levels, as specified in the 500D specifications of BIS, are almost impossible to be achieved through normal scrap & induction furnace route.

In the case of the yield strength for TATA TISCON 500D, though the standard specifies a minimum of 500 N/mm2, and designers use this value for design, the typical values are as high as 540 Nimm?. For the same product, the typical value of ductility as measured by elongation is 18% minimum as against the standard value of 16% minimum. Undoubtedly, the superior values of strength and ductility are a guarantee of higher levels of safety for ages. UTS / YS ratio and percentage elongation are important properties in a rebar that reflect the ability to handle the pressure of earthquakes. Higher these values, the better. Bendabi The special microstructure of TATA TISCON 500D results in a rebar with excellent bendability. The bar can be bent easily and sharply. TATA TISCON 500D can be bent to the exact angle unlike ordinary rebars as desired by the design around mandrels, and is much smaller in diameter than what is specified in 1S:1786. This has obvious advantages at construction sites, Weldability TATA TISCON 500D, due to its low carbon equivalent, has weldability which is superior to ordinary rebars. It can be butt-welded or lap-welded using ordinary rutile coated electrodes of matching strength. In manual are welding, no pre-warming or post-welding treatment is necessary. Although steel and concrete are two different materials, they have to behave as a single unit in a reinforced structure. This can happen only when the concrete grips the steel rebar to form the strongest bond through the unique rib pattern of the rebar. TATA TISCON 500D has a unique rib pattern in terms of greater rib depth and closer rib spacing, Its ribs are made using computer controlled CNC notch cutting machines. Rib patterns on the rebar surface provide quality bonding with cement only when they are produced through CNC machined Rolls. This ensures uniform rib pattern for 100% of the rebars, which allows uniformly strong bonding with concrete for the whole structure. This is in contrast to the ordinary rebars, where ribs are cut manually which always leaves scope for non-uniform rib pattern and thereby, non-uniform and weaker bonding throughout the structure. Due to uniformity and critically designed ribs, fatigue strength of TATA TISCON 500D is much superior to ordinary rebars, tatar ly TISCON ee mimeinanannem ATOOT JOD NOE Ce Ce no ee eu mee India: 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20 and 25 mm.
