Foreword
This Philippine National Standard for rerolled steel bars for concrete reinforcement was
developed by the Bureau of Product Standards’ Technical Committee on Steel (BPS/TC 11)
through its Sub-Committee on Steel for Long Products (SC 01). It cancels and replaces PNS
211:2000 edition.
The scope of this standard is limited only to hot-rolled deformed steel bars with sizes 6 mm, 7
mm, and 8 mm. Other sizes 10 mm and 12 mm are covered in a sepa rate standard, PNS 49 -
Steel bars for concrete reinforcement – Specification. This has been done to avoid confusion
among consumers.
This standard provides for an expansion on the use of raw materials to include wire rods.
