Glad you brought that up. Yes there is some pretty crap rebar around and it is not always sold cheaper than the good stuff either.
The first load of the stuff was delivered to our site....but before they even started unloading the truck my project manager was up inspecting it. He told them to take it back and send us the stuff he ordered, which really pissed off the driver and mate.
The rebar we are getting is really top quality and it is always inspected before unloading.....just like everything else. That's why hiring a top-notch construction pro...is well worth the money. He's actually saved me a small fortune. I would never attempt to do a project like this myself. I though I had researched everything and really knew my stuff.....but the more we get into it the more I realize just how little I really knew....
