Capitol Steel Corporation

Capitol Steel, a leading manufacturer of reinforcing steel bars in the Philippines, was founded by Han Sui Cheng in 1974. Capitol Steel supplied major projects like the Magat Dam, one of the biggest infrastructure projects of its time in the 1970s. This was followed by other dams like the Pantabangan Dam, the Ipo Dam, the La Mesa Dam, and others.

Capitol Steel was also one of the early adopters of ASTM A615 Grade 60, a high tensile grade used in high-rise projects in the 1980s like the Citibank Tower in Makati among others.

During the traffic crisis of the 1990s, Capitol Steel supplied the fast track projects of the EDSA-Ortigas Interchange, the EDSA-Buendia flyover, the C5-Kalayaan Flyover, and the Katipunan Flyover. The manufacturing plant was also upgraded with European, Japanese, and Taiwanese technology.

In the 2000s, Capitol Steel worked together with Centre de Recherches Métallurgiques in Belgium to produce ASTM A706 Grade 75, a higher grade of high tensile steel. This was tested and applied in its own project, a 50,000 sqm high-rise Building in the Ortigas Central Business District. Working together with Sy-Squared, Capitol Steel was able to supply the steel for an office floor plate with long spans and more compact columns that resulted in very high floor area efficiency.

Presently, Capitol Steel, in its fourth decade, remains a solid partner in the construction and real estate industry. It is embarking on a major transformation to meet future challenges. For a list of our projects, visit http://capitolsteel.com.ph/projects/
