Uses of ECMIL Rebar in Construction

Foundation Construction:

  • Purpose: Rebar strengthens concrete foundations by reinforcing tensile strength, ensuring they can support heavy loads and withstand shifting soils.
  • Application: Used in strip foundations, raft slabs, and pile caps for buildings.

Wall Construction:

  • Purpose: Provides structural integrity for concrete walls, preventing cracking and ensuring resistance to lateral forces such as wind or seismic activity.
  • Application: Essential in retaining walls, shear walls, and basement walls.

Bridging Drains at Property Entrances:

  • Purpose: Reinforces the concrete bridges constructed over drains to handle vehicle loads and prevent cracking under pressure.
  • Application: Used in bridge slabs and beams for small vehicular or pedestrian crossings.

Storm Drains:

  • Purpose: Strengthens the walls and bases of storm drains, ensuring they can withstand heavy water flow during storms and maintain structural integrity over time.
  • Application: Rebar is used to reinforce U-shaped and rectangular storm drain sections.

Retaining Walls:

  • Purpose: Reinforces retaining walls, which bear significant lateral loads from soil and water, ensuring long-term stability and durability.
  • Application: Used in reinforced concrete retaining walls for slopes, embankments, and coastal defences.
