Important Requirement !
NSCP Provisions on Yield, Tensile Strength and
Bar Elongation
ii. ratio of actual tensile strength to the
actual yield strength, TS/YS, is at least
1.25; and
iii. minimum elongation in 200 mm shall be at
least 14% for 10-20 mm dia., 12% for 25-36
mm dia. and 10% for 40 mm dia.

Recommendations
✓ QT/TMT rebars can be used in the construction of low to high-rise
buildings or other structures.
✓ Requirements on TS/YS ratios, elongation and other mechanical
properties of MA and TMT rebars shall be conformed with in the
design/construction of structures. These requirements are already
in the present code and is being complied with in design and
construction.
✓ The restrictions on the qualified use of QT/TMT rebars imposed by
the NSCP shall be strictly followed.
✓ Alternative construction methods and techniques may be utilized
to properly use these QT/TMT rebars in the construction of
buildings/infrastructures.
