How internal stresses introduced in concrete?
Pre stressting, post stressing and loading.
A bent rod to resist shear and diagonal stresses in a concrete beam is called?
STIRRUPS
What type of material is reinforced concrete?
Concrete is composed of cement and other cementitious materials such as fly ash and slag cement, coarse aggregate made of crushed stone, fine aggregate such as sand, water, and chemical admixtures. In reinforced concrete, steel is introduced in to the concrete. In plain concrete, no steel reinforcement is introduced. Generally tensile and compressive strength is taken by reinforced concrete and only compressive strength is taken by plain concrete
What is modular ratio in rcc?
In reinforced concrete construction, the modular ratio refers to the modulus of elasticity of concrete to that of steel. It is used in structural design calculations to determine distribution of stresses between concrete and steel in beams and columns.
What is full prestressing?
It is the one in which tensile stresses in the concrete are entirely obviated at working loads by having sufficiently high pre-stress in the member.
What is reinforced concrete used for?
Actually concrete is not very good in tension therefore we have to introduce reinforcement which takes care of the tensile stresses. If we don't provide reinforcement, concrete will start showing cracks wherever tensile stresses overcome the concrete tensile strength.

What stresses would most likely cause an ecosystem to respond by succession?
Air Pollution Control
What is expansion contraction joint how concrete expands contracts?
Concrete expands as it gets warmer and contracts as it gets colder. Left to itself these size changes can lead to cracks occurring, if different parts of the structure heats up/cools off at a different rate than other parts. By dividing the concrete into sections separated by joints that allow for some movement the thermal stresses can be managed and the risk of the concrete cracking goes away.

Why are modern concrete pavements no longer built with thickened edge?
Thickened edges are not normally required since the design is for free edge stresses.
