Proper storage of reinforcing steel on the construction site preserves its quality and prevents rust and corrosion before use.
Steel should be raised off the ground using wooden or metal supports and covered with waterproof tarpaulins in open storage areas.
Avoid storing steel near chemicals or damp materials, and make sure to sort steel by diameter to make it easier to use.
Regular inspection of steel stock is essential to detect any problems early and take the necessary action before use.
