An overview of IS-1786    [ HIGH STRENGTH DEFORMED STEEL] - Section -1

                          The steel shall be manufactured by the method of open-hearth, electric, duplex,

basic-oxygen, or a combination of these processes. For manufacturing of steel following proportion of constituents should follow in order to reach their absolute strength.

                the nominal size of bar as follows - 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 22, 25, 28, 32, 36, 40,

45 and 50 mm, apart from this cross sectional dimension depends on manufacture and customers requirement and quality of material test conducted as per Indian Standard code provisions.

the following table shows cross sectional area and mass of the bars prescribed in IS-1786.

Proof stress, percentage elongation and tensile strength for all sizes of deformed bars/wires determined on the effective cross-sectional area are tabulated following categories.
