Reinforcing Steel with a Process to Rely On
What do the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, the Victoria Bridge and the Parliament House all have in common?
Other than being iconic landmarks which showcase Australia to the rest of the world, they were all constructed using reinforcing steel supplied by ARC. This same 100% Australian-made steel is readily available to the residential builder!
Over the years, ARC has developed a method that their customers can rely on. Here’s the trusted process used to make sure your building is safe and strong.
1. Getting Started
ARC’s Account Managers have the knowledge, experience and training to help you get the best for your project.
Whether it’s getting a quote, start-up meetings, project management or innovative solutions, your Account Manager can help you. Their dedicated Customer Service Officers are ready to help you whether you’re an account customer or just need to pop in and pick up some reo from your local ARC branch.
2. Estimating and Scheduling
ARC estimators complete a detailed take-off of all reinforcement products from the drawings and information supplied by you. Then the scheduler extracts all the necessary information about the reinforcement from the structural drawings and translates this into bar bending schedules.
ARC utilise a high-end scheduling technology to make this process quicker and easier than anywhere else currently in the Australian market. Marking Plans are provided to you, which show where all the reinforcement detailed in the schedule is to be placed in the finished building or structure.
Scheduling services meet engineering standards and requirements and can help reduce costs and save time for your project.
3. Cutting and Bending the Bar
Since the demands of each concreting job are different, many of the products are custom-made to be the right length and shape for your project.
Reinforcing bar can be bent to shape and cut to the proper length, always to Australian standards.
4. Prefabrication for Your Project
ARC are capable of producing prefabricated reo cages quickly, efficiently and with a high degree of precision and quality. Specialised machines manufacture a vast array of products with varying diameters, shapes and sizes.
There are many benefits of prefabrication, including:
- Reduced bar congestion
- Improved safety on site
- Increased speed
- Simplified logistics on site
- Improved product consistency and quality
- Reduced scrap
- Reduction in on-site trades
- Reduced impact of bad weather
5. Delivery to Site
Your steel is ready; it has been scheduled, cut, bent and prefabricated to your exact needs for the project.
Now ARC can take care of getting it safely to your site on time with our range of rigid trucks and semi-trailers, complete with HIAB cranes and safety bins.
Or, if you’d rather pick it up or it’s a small load, ARC will help you to load it safely.
6. Following Up
