What is Bridge Construction Cold Extrusion Rebar Coupler?
The Bridge Construction Cold Extrusion Rebar Coupler is used to eliminate possible assembly failure where insertion workmanship cannot be exactly matched on the rebars at the construction site. Each reinforcing bar attached by the coupler has only one thread length. Lengths are different for each rebar/coupler (Rebar Coupler) size.

What Are the Differences Between Steel Formwork and Aluminum Formwork?
Steel formwork and aluminum formwork are both considered general types of engineered formwork. Engineered formwork and conventional formwork are the two main categories of formwork. Conventional formwork is typically made from timber, while engineered forms are made from steel, aluminum, or plastic. Timber formwork costs a bit less, but it’s not as durable and rigid. It also can’t be re-used and re-sold numerous times after its initial use, like engineered formwork.

Do you Know the Difference Between PPGI and PPGL Steel Sheets?
PPGI and PPGL steel sheets are two different kinds of color-coated steel sheets. PPGI and PPGL steel sheets are widely used in various industries. For example, advertising, construction, transportation, appliance industry, etc. PPGI and PPGL steel sheets are very similar. But there are still some differences between them. So, do you know what are the differences between PPGI and PPGL sheets? Let’s find out the differences.

What is Steel Scaffolding Applications?
Steel scaffolding is widely used during building construction, maintenance, and repair. It allows workers to access high and remote locations of any building. Steel scaffolding can come in many forms, all depending on the project at hand. Supported scaffolding is the most common type of scaffolding. It’s built from the ground up and is commonly seen at most construction sites. It’s the easiest, most convenient, safest, and most cost-effective scaffolding structure. Extra support can be added if the structure is extremely high or if very heavy loads need to be transported.

What is Galvanized Steel Scaffolding History?
Scaffolding has been used since the beginning of human civilization. It has been speculated that the ancient Egyptian pyramids were built using timber scaffolding. Before the year of 1922, when steel was not widespread around the world, timber scaffolding was widely used in construction. Then, as steel was widely used in the construction industry, steel tubes started to replace timber poles. Scaffolding using steel tubes or we called tubular scaffolding has been the industry standard since the 1950s. It’s lightweight without compromising strength. As for now, ring lock scaffolding is the popular form. Ringlock scaffolding is quick and easy to assemble without the need for nuts and bolts. The metals used for ring lock scaffolding are typically steel or aluminum.

What is Cold Rolled Steel Coil?
The cold-rolled steel coil is essentially a hot-rolled steel coil that through further processing. The steel is processed further in cold reduction mills, where the material is cooled (at room temperature) followed by annealing and/or tempers rolling. This process will produce steel with closer dimensional tolerances and a wider range of surface finishes. The term Cold Rolled is mistakenly used on all products when actually the product name refers to the rolling of flat-rolled sheet and coil products.

Hot Rolled Steel Coil vs Cold Rolled Steel Coil
When it comes to the difference between Hot Rolled steel coil and Cold Rolled steel coil, what you need to know is the difference between material, application, and size requirements. The first thing we should know is that the terms Hot Rolled and Cold Rolled. They do not refer to any steel grades or strengths, but only the different processes used to create the steel bar product at the mill.

Why Galvanazation is Important?
Galvanization is the process of applying a protective zinc coating to steel or iron in order to prevent premature rust and corrosion. Proponents of galvanized steel, who may use it to construct or repair steel structures, for example, benefit from lower maintenance and repair costs because of its special properties.

Difference Between Stainless Steel and Galvanized Steel
Plain carbon steel will still rust quite easily in most environments if not protected. Due to this, there are many ways steel has been modified to prevent corrosion. Two popular solutions are using stainless steel or galvanized steel. While both sheets of steel resist rusting and corrosion, there are important differences between them that should be understood.

Do You Know What is Stainless Steel?
Stainless steel is able to resist corrosion because of the additional alloying elements in its chemical makeup. While plain carbon steel consists of mostly iron and carbon, stainless steel has substantial additions of chromium to help it resist corrosion. The chromium, and sometimes other alloying elements, are added to the stainless steel during the initial melting process, prior to it being formed into any particular shape.
