Steel Work for Reinforcement

2 types of reinforcement steel used to construct foundation, stump and ground beam are;
1. Mild steel ( R @ M)
2. High Yield steel ( Y @ H)
Measured in length, unit meter (m).
Important in structure to support tension and compression load.
In calculation, concrete cover is considered too to prevent failure in reinforcement bar
during fire and affect the weakness of building structure.
Concrete cover for beam 30 mm thick = structure maintain for 2 hrs during fire.
4 item to be considered in quantity surveying;
1. Thickness of concrete cover
2. Type of reinforcement steel used
3. Size reinforcement steel used
4. Number of reinforcement steel used
