ADVERTISEMENTS
High Tensile deformed steel has two types. They are as follows:
1. Grade Fe415 (Tor-40 or Tistrong I)
2. Grade Fe500 (Tor-50 or Tistrong II)
The names of the high tensile deformed steel have been derived from their manufacturers.

For example:
Tor-Isteg Steel Corporation in Calcutta manufactures Tor-40 and Tor-50. Hence, the name.
Tata Iron and Steel Co. Ltd, Calcutta manufactures Tistrong I and Tistrong II.

The modular ratio is not constant for all grades of concrete. It varies with the grade of concrete. Es/Ec
is generally not used to calculate modular ratio for reinforced concrete designs.
As per IS : 456-1978;
m is calculated by the following formula:
m = 280/3 c bc
where,
cbc = permissible compressive stress in concrete in bending.
Modular ratio
M15
m = 280/35 = 18.66
M20
m = 280/37 = 13.33
M25
m = 280/38.5 = 10.98
M30
m = 280/310 = 9.33
It should be remembered that rounding off the modular ratio values is not permitted by Indian
Standard.
