Economy in Construction: Xtreme 500W bars are weldable and save steels in splicing of steel bars in columns and beams. Safer in Design: Superior ductility and endurance as the steel is heat treated by a unique and patented Danieli QTB process. This ensures easier bending so there is no danger of brittle breakages. Superior fatigue resistance to vibration and shock loading offers bonus protection against earthquakes and wind surges. BSRM Steels Ltd. is the only bar manufacturer in the country to have invested in this premium European technology. Safer in Construction: Welded Xtreme 500W welded bar cages are very rigid and can resist shearing forces and will not distort when pouring concrete or be affected by vibrators. Bars tied with wires dislocate readily under the weight of fresh concrete and vibrators. Dislocation of bars is dangerous as tensile forces may act in location where reinforcement is absent.
and mechanical properties. Finished goods are stored in intermediate quarantine until clearance from quality control and then stored in the finished goods storage area ready for delivery. Product traceability is ensured through a label that shows the date of production and other information such as diameter, length, weight of bundle and grade. This quality system ensures the best way to trace any product back to its date of production to verify the different production conditions at that time and the source of raw materials used. This traceability is an integral part of the prestigious CARES certification scheme.
Chemists & Engineers ensure the product lot is under the standard quality. By using Universal Testing Machine (UTM), they test standard of their product. (Sample must be required minimum standard 520MPa) By using Bend Re-Bend Testing Machine (BRTM), they test the bending capacity of their product.

automated plant of European Origin, the First Automatic Plant in Bangladesh. Production is maintained at controlled temperature with high finishing temperature during rolling. Rebars are cooled in automated walking beam cooling bed. The mechanical properties of the bars are thus guaranteed to be uniform. Fully automatic PLC controlled reheating furnace ensures Billets are heated uniformly with fully computerized temperature control. Weight per meter is with minus tolerance (for consumer benefit) as per National and International Standards Specification. Strict quality control is maintained at every stage of production and 100% tractability maintained during production. BSRM frog mark appears on each meter length of Re-bars to ensure genuineness.
ISO
RELATED
BSRM obtained their ISO 9001: 2000 in the year BSRM is the first steel manufacturing organization that got ISO 9001: 2000 in Bangladesh.

AFTER
Finish products quality is checked at the highly The percentage of acceptance and rejection of is kept though the rate of rejection is very negligible. Specialists are recruited at the finish product testing lab. Weight, size, dimension, length etc, are strictly checked and ensured for finish product accuracy. At final product testing laboratory the tensile strengths are maintained basically. The samples of every lot is kept to face the complain of customer in a fare way. International standards are maintained for finish products Computer software are used to enhance the accuracy of the product (such as Auto CAD product design) Finish products weight measurement is done through automatic machine without any touch of human. for

CHAPTER THREE
3.1. RECOMMENDATION
Though the company is the market leader of steel industry and adopted almost all of measures comparing to other company, the following measures should be taken by the company: 1. The company should reduce it unit production cost as early as possible to reduce price per ton because its price is more than other companies price. 2. The production of the company has to increase because the production is lower than the demand of the product. In market, their product demand is very high. 3. The company should Increase its production capacity because its products has huge demand in the market. 4. Take apart housing estate need built up for employees who are working in the production department.
3.2. CONCLUSION
The report has revealed the quality management and performance of BSRM Steels Limited for the year 2009 and first six month of the year 2010. After the tour in October 9, 2010, we get broader idea regarding the quality management for preparation of report, they provided some document based on which report is prepared. We also observed some quality test in the side which gave us the
19
quality of 60 grade bar. Form this tour we also observed that BSRM Steels Limited greatly ensure their product quality and for which they offer high price for its product. Moreover, BSRM continuously inspect its product quality by a team of BUET after every six month. So, it can be concluded that BSRM has tried best in its quality management.
