3 Foreword GB 1499 is divided into three parts: Part 1: Hot rolled plain bars; Part 2: Hot rolled ribbed bars; Part 3: Steel bar welting net. This is Part 2 of GB 1499; it corresponds to the international standard ISO :1991 Steel for the Reinforcement of Concrete - Part 2: Ribbed bars ; it is not equivalent to ISO :1991. This part also makes reference to the revision version of international standard "ISO/DIS (2005)". This part replaces GB Hot Rolling Ribbed Steel Bars for the Reinforcement of Concrete. The main changes between this part and GB are as follows: The hot rolled bars of fine grains was added in the scope of application; Add three designations of hot rolled bars of fine grains, namely HRBF335, HRBF400 and HRBF500; Add three definitions general hot-rolled reinforced bar, 3.2 hot rolled bars of fine grains and 3.11 characteristic value; Add Chapter 5 of purchasing content; Add three specifications fatigue property, 7.6 welding performance and 7.7 grain size; Amend "surface quality", "weight deviation measuring" and other provisions; Amend the designation sign of steel bars; HRB335, HRB400 and HRB500 are replaced by 3, 4 and 5 respectively; while HRBF335, HRBF400 and HRBF500 are replaced by C3, C4 and C5; Delete the original Annex B "reference composition of hot-rolled ribbed bars"; Add existing Annex B "test rules of the characteristic value"; Add Annex C "computing formula of relative ribs area of steel bar".

7 6.4 Length and length tolerance Length The steel bar shall be delivered in specified lengths, and the delivery length of steel bar shall be described in the contract The steel bar shall be delivered in specified lengths, and the delivery length of steel bar shall be described in contract The steel bar can be delivered by coil, each coil contains one strip of steel bar, and 5% coil amount is allowed to contain two strips of steel bars (insufficient two coils will be regarded as two coils). The coil weight and coil diameter shall be negotiated by the supplier and buyer Length tolerance If the steel bar is delivered in specified length, the length tolerance is ±25mm. If the minimum length is required, then the length tolerance is +50 mm. If the maximum length is required, then the length tolerance is -50 mm. 6.5 Bend degree and end The tortuosity of straight steel bar shall not exert any influence on its general use, while the total tortuosity of steel bar shall not be greater than 0.4% * the total length of steel bar. The steel bar tip shall be sheared completely, so as to ensure that the local deformation won't influence its use. 6.6 Weight and weight tolerance The steel bar can be delivered under the theoretical weight or actual weight condition. If the theoretical weight is applied as delivery condition, then it can be calculated by the steel bar length multiplying the theoretical weight/ meter specified in Table The actual weight and theoretical weight tolerance shall comply with provisions specified in Table 4.
