Stats on the Importance of Proper Storage and Handling:
1. According to industry research, improper storage and handling of TMT bars can lead to a loss of up to 25% of their strength and corrosion resistance.
2. Inadequate storage practices contribute to the majority of TMT bar quality issues during construction, leading to potential structural failures.

3. Studies show that whenTMTbars are not properly handled and stored, the risk of rust, deformation, and brittleness significantly increases.
ChoosetheRightStorageArea:
Select a clean, dry, and well-ventilated storage area to protect TMT bars from moisture, rain, and excessive humidity. The storage area should be free from chemicals, debris, and other corrosive substances that can damage the bars.
UseProperStackingTechniques:
Ensure that TMT bars are stacked horizontally on a flat surface. Use wooden supports or racks to maintain a uniform gap between each stack to prevent deformation and maintain proper air circulation.
