ASTM 615 Gr. 60
Cut and Bend bars are prefabricated bars customized as per requirement and exact specifications.
Stirrups are manufactured to encircle the steel bars from all sides and edges, locking them in place to avoid buckling or deformation under loads. Stirrups in construction confine the concrete and withstand various uncertainties like tension, shear forces, and pressures
One of the fundamental aspects is the use of stirrups in construction. A stirrup refers to a closed loop of reinforcement bar. Its main purpose is to hold the reinforcement bars together in an RCC structure. When used in a column, they provide lateral support to the main reinforcement bars to prevent buckling.
The recommended angles provided for stirrups should vary from 90 degrees to 135 degrees. 90-degree bent for stirrup is seldom used as it does not have enough strength to resist earthquake or lateral forces. So, a 135-degree bent is mostly recommended.

Q. What is the process of cutting and bending of reinforcement steel called? A. Bar bending is the process of making and bending steel reinforcing bars and beams, also called “rebar,” which are used to strengthen concrete in buildings.
