I have rarely seen anything you could call as European Rebar. They tend to use small straight steel not the twisted high strength stuff you get back home. Also I have yet to see any samples of the concrete being taken on either big or small buildings and some of the concrete I have seen poured is far too wet ! On every site I worked on in the UK there was a guy who sampled every lorry load of concrete which was then subject to a crush test to make sure it was to the standard required or requested.

That's probably why my house would have cost 6 times more to build in the UK

So it collapsing on you and your family one night a few years down the line is OK as it has saved you a few dollars. NICE!!!!!!!!!! A bit of quality control is not going to cost 6 times a much mate just a bit of concern for who is actually going to be living there. You don't build and sell houses here do you as that's the answer I would expect from someone like that ?
