Epoxy Coating for Corrosion in Steel Construction
Corrosion of steel is a common problem in construction, especially in humid or coastal areas where the steel is exposed to moisture, salts, and other corrosive agents. Corrosion can cause severe damage to the steel, leading to structural failures and costly repairs. To prevent this, epoxy coating is often applied on the surface of the […]
Rebar in Concrete Structures: Why is it used?
Rebar is used in reinforced concrete structures to provide additional strength and support. The concrete serves as the compression element, while the reinforcement bar provides the tensile strength. This combination of compression and tension makes reinforced concrete structures much stronger and more durable than structures made solely of concrete. Why is epoxy coating used on […]
What is Epoxy Coated Dowel Bar?
Epoxy coated dowel bar is a type of steel reinforcement used in concrete pavements, airports, ports, and bridges. It is used to increase the tensile strength of concrete. The epoxy coating enhances the durability of the dowel bar against corrosion, thus extending its life. How is Epoxy Coated Dowel Bar Used? Epoxy coated dowel bar […]
