Do not ever straighten rebar like this. I cannot emphasize how bad this is for structural integrity of reinforced concrete structures.

Perfect for sidewalks, street curbs, concrete benches and fences maybe even a waist high wall around your yard. But definitely NOT a building.

This is acceptable.

Use this instead

😂

this is done to achieve easier material transport i believe

this is a good use for the machine.

I saw you in here talking about mill certs on rebar and I was flabbergasted until I saw bridges in your bio 😂🙏 -structural engineer
