Rebar for reinforced-concrete construction
Deformed reinforcement bar—often called rebar, reinforcement steel, or ferro—is designed with surface ribs that improve its bond with concrete. It is commonly specified for foundations, columns, beams, slabs, retaining structures and other reinforced-concrete work.
Common requested rebar diameters
Buyers commonly request diameters from 8 mm to 32 mm. Availability changes, so every quotation should identify the exact diameter and quantity.
| Diameter | Typical purchasing context | Confirm before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| 8–10 mm | Stirrups, ties and lighter reinforcement according to design | Grade, length and quantity |
| 12–16 mm | Frequently specified structural reinforcement | Bar schedule and required date |
| 20–32 mm | Heavier structural and project requirements | Engineer specification and stock |
Important: This table is general purchasing information, not structural engineering advice. Always follow the approved design and bill of quantities.
