TMT bar, also known as Thermo-Mechanically Treated Bar, is a type of reinforcement steel bar commonly used in construction. TMT bars are manufactured through a process that involves quenching & tempering, which imparts enhanced strength and ductility to the steel.

From homes and multi-storied buildings to flyovers and bridges, TMT bars provide high strength to the structures. TMT bars are able to withstand any amount of load. These improve the safety and longevity of the structure and secure the structure from any damages.

As per Bureau of Indian Standard’s specification, the following are the grades of TMT Bars:

1. Grade Fe – 415

2. Grade Fe – 415 D

3. Grade Fe – 500

4. Grade Fe – 500 D

5. Grade Fe – 500 S

6. Grade Fe – 550

7. Grade Fe – 550 D

8. Grade Fe – 600

9. Grade Fe – 650

10. Grade Fe – 700

1. Recognition and credits for achieving national and international Certification for the Green Buildings

2. Improved product performance during use to reduce resource consumption and environmental impacts

3. Time and effort in carrying out due diligence in selecting a green product is saved

4. Ensures toxic and hazardous substances free products which in turn decrease “health and wellbeing” risks of the users
