About this document
Failure Analysis of TMT Bar Defects by Rizwan Tonoy is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) The document analyzes a failure that occurred during the bending of a TMT (thermo-mechanically treated) steel rebar. 2) Visual and microscopic examination found the rebar failed in a ductile manner due to the presence of subsurface blowholes in the steel. These blowholes originated during the casting process of the billets used to produce the rebar. 3) The blowholes were elongated during rolling and caused cracking of the rebar during bending. The failure analysis determined the steel defects present
