H16/T16 - 16mm rebar

In the building sector, 16mm rebar is frequently utilised, especially in commercial projects of various sizes. Its main purpose, like that of other diameter rebar, is to increase concrete's tensile strength and balance load via slabs, columns, beams, and other structural parts. Large diameter rebar, such T16 rebar, is most frequently utilised in prefabricated elements like pile caps, ground beams, and columns that need for significant reinforcing strength. Like all of the rebar we sell, 16mm rebar is deformed with "ribs" to aid strengthen the binding with the concrete and lessen lateral movement while the rebar is being placed and poured.

Overview

The Bar reinforcement in composite slabs usually takes the form of a relatively light welded fabric mesh, commonly supplemented by some bar reinforcement.

Bar reinforcement may be used to supplement the fabric mesh for various reasons such as:

  • To achieve longer fire resistance periods
  • To reinforce the slab around significant openings.
  • When additional transverse reinforcement is needed.
  • To achieve greater crack control.

Our high yield 16mm reinforcing steel bar is 100% UK sourced and manufactured to BS4449/2005 with CARES approval.
