Determination Of Loss In Strength Of Steel Due Stacking On Construction Site
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Civil Engineering
Abstract
Use of corroded steel for reinforcement work is frequently carried out construction activity of human beings. The construction technology has advanced since the beginning of primitive construction technology to the present a concept of modern house buildings. The present construction methodology for buildings brought for the best aesthetic look, high quality & fast construction, cost effective & innovative appearance. But use of corroded and deteriorated steel is directly hampering the strength of the structures. Around 40% of structure failure occur due to deterioration of steel reinforcement. Due to fluctuation in cost of steel material used in construction industry, people prefer to buy the material in bulk quantity when the cost is low. But the steel starts gradually deteriorating due to prolonged stacking time. Such deteriorated steel used in reinforcement work leads to reduction in life span and strength of the building. This also involves the strength reduction along with increase in the stacking period. The study involves comparative analysis of newly manufactured steel bars and corroded steel bars. It also covers inspection of materials used on site for reinforcement activities
Keywords
