How to Ensure Ultimate Safety and Protection of Your House from Earthquake Damages

India experiences consistent seismic activities and falls under an active zone for earthquakes. Many cities across India are excessively prone to earthquakes and in every decade a major earthquake is experienced and devastating impacts have been recorded since time immemorial.  

During a seismic event, building structures tend to fail and collapse. This leads to loss of valuable lives and property. Since about 200 cities across the nation fall under high-risk zones for earthquake activity, it is imperative to ensure the ideal precaution and safety measures on the construction front to make our buildings and structures resist excess damage from such events.  

A better preparation for protection against future seismic activities 

Earthquakes are inevitable natural forces and pose a threat to our safety. As with all other omnipresent risks, what is required is to follow preventive measures that will help us better resist earthquake sand mitigate extensive damages and devastation from the same.  

As an earthquake results in lateral movements, these tend to shake buildings horizontally. If a structure lacks the flexibility to cope up with seismic forces, it develops cracks and in extreme situations, even collapses.

In order to make building structures extremely resistant against seismic forces and to guarantee better protection in the event of an earthquake, the use of optimum reinforcement elements in construction is assured in addition to the other measures that help ensure safety in such circumstances. 

Preventing building damages from earthquakes with use of Steel TMT Bars 

Thermo Mechanically Treated Steel Bars when used as reinforcement elements in a building structure help it withstand extreme seismic forces and impart essential flexibility to prevent cracking and collapse.

Here are the unique features from the TMT bars in Baghpat that makes then ideal for utilization across seismic prone areas - 

Enhanced strength  

The steel TMT bars are available in varieties of grades of strength and ductility. For areas prone to high risks of earthquakes, high strength and ductility grades of TMT bars can be used and this offers an ideal balance of strength and bending to safely cope with the seismic forces. 

Better corrosion resistance 

Longevity of reinforcement elements in a building structure can play an essential role in determining seismic safety over the longer run. TMT steel bars possess ultimate features of corrosion resistance and maintain their optimum strength and performance for longer spans. This helps them to keep building structures intact even when under earthquake influence.  

High ductility

When it comes to earthquake safety of a building, ductilityis the prime characteristic that determines the same. A steel TMT bar possesses high ductility and thus results in exceptional flexibility when under seismic stresses. This is vital for building to retain its original structure during and after an earthquake.

7 STAR Shri Rathi Group produces an advanced range of Top TMT Saria in Baghpat that enables better safety during earthquakes and results in enhanced protection against damage from the seismic forces.
