Hello RC,

Take a really good look at the links in this site. There is so many I hope one will suite you. Do not forget as the Philippines is just North of Australia this may be the supply to check out.

This site also explains how to use and 'place' the re bar.

Good luck

hi Rico,

visit the sites of the Philippine rebar manufacturers and download their standards. Capitol Steel, for example, has a copy of PNS 49 standard in their site.

these standards will show you even the rebar color coding that is used all over the country.

HTH!
