what is the FE415 & FE500?WHAT IS ITS STRENGTH?

Answer Posted / babu lal nayak

The abbreviation Fe stands for Ferrous material ie iron from which the reinforcement steel bars are manufactured.
The number 415 indicates that the Yield Strength (tensile strength when it is subjected to elongation) of steel is 415 N/mm2.

The reinforcement steel bars used in RCC (Reinforced Cement Concrete) are designated in grades of Fe250, Fe415 or Fe500 depending on their Yield Strength. (The numbers 250, 415 and 500 tell about this Yield Strength in N/mm2 the bars are designed and manufactured to have.)

In foundation design, while we do the base pressure check, we normally check if the attained pressure value is less than the GROSS BEARING CAPACITY of the soil which is the sum of net bearing capacity of soil and the overburden pressure. Actually, the overburden pressure acts against the net bearing capacity of the soil and I feel that we are actually increasing the bearing capacity value and doing the check. I feel that this is NOT right. Please clarify on this.
