"Improved Bond Rods" and "Smoot Round Rod"

03/30/2010 1:47 AM

What does " improved-bond rods" and " smooth round rod" mean? They are sort of terminologies used in steel-making.

Thanks.

BTW: To Those who have doubt about my intention of asking so many "stupid" questions, I have to ID myself. I am a professional translator here in China and my work includes but not limited to: heavy machinery, electrical machine and chemical engineering. No wonder once Tornado ponders over my versatility of my work.

We do not use that terminology in Canada, but I would expect that "improved-bond rods" would be the same as "deformed bars", which are commonly used to reinforce concrete.

Smooth round rods are round bars without deformations.

Check some of these links.

That sounds good; I would guess the same.
