Greetings!
Rexsteel is a company with enviable experience and advanced technology of
corrugated steel plate.

Rex-Plate® and Embo-Plate® are distinguished not only for their advanced manu-
facturing system but also for the quality and outstanding assets, which can
reduce costs and time of installation.

We will continue research and development for improved products and technol-
ogy. Among our recent achievements is a new reinforcement technology for
installation of corrugated steel plates that is currently patent-pending.

Rexsteel, which pursues the global market as well as the Korean one, has success-
fully carried out a turn-key project to provide complete business capabilities of
corrugated steel plates including production lines and related technologies to an
overseas company.

All of Rexsteel employees will not save any efforts to expand their horizons and
make a small but strong and indispensable company for the industry. Thank you.

 Ɣ What is corrugated steel plate? Ɣ Specifications of corrugated steel plate
Corrugated Corrugated steel plate has increased strength and durability through
corrugation of steel plate, and it is used for soil steel structures which Model Product Name Thickness Profile Pitch (p) Profile Depth (d)

Ɣ Production and Assembly of Corrugated Steel Plate
1. Steel coil (raw material) 2. Corrugation

Ɣ Embo-Plate (REX-8381E) SECTION A-A

1. Embossing on the slope between the top and valley of each corrugation
increases structural load resistance of corrugated steel plate through
dispersing stress caused by high depth cover or unbalanced soil pressure.
- When composite reinforcement with concrete is required, no additional
materials such as reinforcing bars or studs.
2. Distinguished from existing plates corrugated by a press brake, Rex-Pate
corrugated by a roll-forming system, which corrugated plates more precisely,
can have its length up to 7.2M while existing ones' maximum length is 4.7M.
3. Curving 4. Bolting
- Thanks to the extended length, the total number of plates and 2@381 =762mm
assembly time are reduced.

RC Corrugated Steel Plate

Against the vertical earth pressure caused by the load above the structure, the soil pressures from the Passage Way
 
sides of the structure maintain the balance. This structural balance resists bending moment and utilizes
interactive pressures.

plate assembly is hardly affected by weather. In addition, since
corrugated steel plate structures are assembled by bolting at
site, construction time is 50~60% of concrete ones.

Ɣ No Traffic Interruption
Corrugated steel plate of which structure uses pebbles, send
and soil for back-filling minimizes concrete use. The material of
corrugated steel plate, steel, can be 100% recycled.
Support is not required to install a corrugated steel plate
structure, and the traffic is not interrupted during the installa-
tion. No road blocking or detouring that could cause inconve-
nience or complaints is necessary.

1. Granular-type soils should be used as engineering backfill and compacted evenly. In order to have
balanced surrounding earth pressure, the base soil and the backfilling material should be the same or
similar to each other.
2. Backfill of soil structure has two different parts: £Engineering backfill which directly influence to the
structure's state. ¤ Regular backfill which includes outer areas.
- Engineering backfill materials are:
Well-graded sand and gravel; sharp, rough, or angular if possible
Uniform sand or gravel
Mixed soil (not recommended for large structures)
Approved stabilized soil
- Regular backfill materials: For the areas other than structural backfill, materials available near the
site to be sued according to the design
3. The difference of the backfill compaction between the two sides of the structure should be less than
20cm. When a displacement occurs to the structure, the backfill should be partially removed to adjust
the section, and backfilling should be re-conducted.
4. During the compaction of structural backfill, no other heavy equipment than compactors should be
prohibited within 60cm from the walls of the structure.
