Which is better TMT or HYSD?

TMT bars have the lowest occurrence of surface defects contrasted with HYSD bars since it doesn’t include twisting or torsional stress. TMT bars are superior than HYSD because of lesser residual stresses, more corrosion resistance because of hard surface and greater ductility for similar strength grade.

What is the difference between HYSD and mild steel?

Though mild steel contains very little carbon, it is ductile and weldable but having low strength. Also, mild steel is highly prone to corrosion. High yield strength deformed bars (HYSD) are manufactured under heat treatment followed by either heat rolled or cold twisted for shaping.

Which one is better HYSD or mild steel and why?

HYSD is a special quality steel with much higher tensile strength than the mild steel (30 to 40% stronger than mild steel) . It is costlier , more strong & more hard than mild steel. It is used for heavy structures in civil construction.

What’s the difference between TMT and hysd steel bars?

TMT bars have less residual stresses and higher tensile strength than HYSD bars because TMT bars do not undergo any physical deformation, unlike HYSD bars. As TMT bars do not undergo any physical deformation (twisting), no torsional stress occurs which removes the chances of surface defects in TMT bars.

What’s the difference between hysd and Tor steel?

HYSD: When expanded, HYSD stands for High Yielding Strength Deformed Steel; and is also their main characteristic. HYSD steel also undergoes heat treatment similar to TMT bars, but the subsequent processes are different.

What’s the difference between TMT and hysd casting?

For a heavy structure , on an average, TMT can help optimize the steel requirement to an extent of 7 to 10 percent. On the other hand HYSD is manufactured by a process of twisting the rod after casting. This by nature creates surface flaws and the yeild strength of the rod might get affected.

What kind of Bar is a TMT bar?

TMT: Thermo Mechanically Treated or TMT bars are high-strength reinforcement bars having a hardened outer core and a soft inner core. They are manufactured under a process called Thermo Mechanical Treatment, after which they are named.
