Abstract: Reinforcing bar is a significant component of concrete, which define quality, strength and stiffness of concrete. In this paper the quality of reinforcing bar was studied. The samples taken from different suppliers (Indonesia and Chinese suppliers) in Timor-Leste are investigated and evaluated. Yields strength, tensile strength and effective diameter of the samples were compared to the requirement value to the American standard.
Keywords: Reinforcing bar, steel quality, yield strength, tensile strength, effective diameter.
