How do TMT bars contribute to the strength and durability of a building?

TMT bars, or Thermo-Mechanically Treated bars, significantly enhance the strength and durability of buildings due to their unique manufacturing process. During production, TMT bars are subjected to a controlled cooling process, followed by rapid quenching, which forms a tough outer layer on the bars. This process, known as quenching and tempering, results in increased tensile strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance of the bars. As a result, TMT bars provide superior structural integrity, ensuring buildings withstand various external forces such as earthquakes, wind loads, and corrosion, thereby enhancing their overall strength and durability.
