Synopsis

Steel enters a site as a coil or a straight length. What happens to it before it becomes part of a column, a slab, or a foundation is a story most people outside the industry never hear - and one even many inside it only partly know.From Mill to Mould follows that journey: how raw bar is cut and bent to a drawing's exact requirements, welded into mesh, joined with mechanical couplers, and assembled into fabricated cages, on its way from a rolling mill to a finished structure. Along the way, it opens up a part of the supply chain rarely explained on its own terms - rebar grades and standards, the realities of running a cut-and-bend processing centre, the safety and quality disciplines behind it, and products such as welded mesh, couplers, and precast reinforcement that engineers now specify as routinely as the bar itself.Written by a practitioner who spent nearly two decades building and running this business, the book translates a manufacturer's view of reinforcement processing into terms any construction professional can follow - moving from the fundamentals of rebar, through the economics of a processing centre, into the specialised products reshaping how reinforcement is used, and out to how the practice varies across markets worldwide.Equal parts technical primer and career reflection, From Mill to Mould is for engineers, contractors, and estimators who work with reinforcement steel, and for anyone who has wondered what happens between the mill and the mould.
