"The Steel Benders" is a video of action that captures the precision and skill behind bending and fixing reinforcement bars for precast concrete box culverts. From hydraulic machines shaping 40mm steel to workers securing the grid within molds, every step reflects rigorous adherence to engineering codes. A tribute to the unsung artisans who build strength into every structure.
