There are several global standards that specify mechanical properties and/or testing requirements for steel reinforcing bar (rebar). Some of the most common include ASTM A370, ISO 15630-1, BS 4449, AS/NZS 4671, JIS G 3112, GB 1499, and ACI 318. These standards include testing requirement that are specific to determining rebar tensile and bend properties. Many of these rebar standards also make reference to the widely recognized metals tensile testing standards, such as ASTM E8, ISO 6892-1, EN 10002-1, AS 1391, JIS Z 2241, GB/T 228.1 for general tensile testing guidance.
Typical results include Yield Point (ReH, Drop of Beam, Zero Slope), Proof Strength or Offset Yield Strength (Rp0.2, 0.2% Offset Yield), Tensile Strength (Rm), Elongation at Maximum Force (Ag, Agt) and Elongation after Fracture (A). The basic test and challenges are similar regardless of the specific standard being followed.
