👉Rebar Cracks
📌Cause : visible defect is a crack running along the bar, most likely caused by internal stresses, poor manufacturing processes, or rolling defects during steel production.
🏷Effect : Using rebars with such cracks in construction can severely reduce the load-carrying capacity and pose a risk of premature failure under stress.Practical Implications
⭐️Preventive action: All reinforcement materials should be visually inspected for cracks, splits, or signs of corrosion before use to ensure construction quality and safety.
⏺Damaged or defective bars like the one shown must be rejected in quality control and not used in structural concrete work.
