Steps You Can Follow To Ensure Good Use Of Tie Wires For Construction

By George McDonald


Building and construction is a long and complex process that requires so much to achieve the best results. The best structures require that proper planning and preparation be done before the actual act of construction begins. Selecting the right and all the materials required is very important, and one of the most important materials are tie wires when doing concrete constructions. The main thing to acquire the technical design of your house from an architect or an engineer.

The next thing after visualizing your desired construction on the paper or board is to go ahead and buy these accessories, which are also known as the tying materials. It becomes easy to know what to buy and in what quantity. You must remember that they appear in different sizes and shapes depending on the degree of complexity of the building that they are intended for.

It is advisable to decide on the method that would be most effective yet affordable for you when you will be tying the components. This step is key because it has budgetary implications. If the right choice is not made, between the spinner and using annealed steel, you might be frustrated at some point during the construction. Remember that it is expensive to use the spinner, but if the budget allows, you can go ahead since it is more effective. Otherwise, the annealed steel would be the best.

You can make the concrete slab and then make the bars or start with the bar. The choice is depended on the design of your structure and, sometimes, the preferences and experience of the constructor. Whichever the case, be sure that the right re-bar is used in the right place. Again, your decision is important because it helps you to prepare adequately and avoid changes that could hamper the progress.

Shake the tying accessories to prepare for the process. This involves removing the re-bar from the container in which they are to sort them out concerning shape, size, and weight. This is intended to help you have an easy time when you begin the tying because they would be easily identifiable and therefore quick to pick. Besides, it indicates a good working order for the constructor.

The next step, after ensuring that everything is okay, is to start tying. Making the bars requires some degree of professionalism and experience. This is because you will need to place each re-bar where and how it is supposed to be so that the building may achieve the intended strength and stability.

Fasten the ties using a pair of pliers. Regardless of the kind of structure, you will need to make the ties as tight as possible. This ensures that the re-bar is effectively fastened and, thus, enhances the strength and stability of the house. Do these using pliers because it is simple to use. This step may appear simple, but it is advisable to depend on experience when doing it or if you ask someone else to fasten.

All said and done, making the re-bar during construction is a task that requires a good degree of relevant experience. When the right steps are followed, construction mishaps that are sometimes experienced can be avoided. Besides, the house achieves a good constructional standard and offers satisfaction even to the constructor.
