BS 4482: Steel wire for reinforcement of concrete products
BS 4482 is the British Standard specification for steel wire used to reinforce concrete products. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What BS 4482 Covers
It covers plain, indented, and ribbed reinforcing wire, supporting purchasing, incoming inspection, and compliance for reinforcement wire.
How the Test Is Run
A wire sample is pulled to failure with high-force grips, and tensile strength, proof stress, and elongation are checked against the specification.
Why It Matters
Reinforcing-wire verification underpins concrete-product performance; high-force serrated grips sized to the wire are essential.
