The aluminum door is lighter and less expensive than steel door.
Define steel reinforced concrete?
Steel reinforced concrete is concrete with rods of steel running through it.
What is heavier a steel beam or concrete beam?
Steel is heavier than concrete for the same volume, however steel buildings are generally lighter. This is because steel buildings utilize high strength of steel, so volume of steel in steel buildings is much smaller than volume of concrete in concrete buildings. In another words in steel buildings much less volume of material is needed for the same strength compared to concrete buildings.
Why the partial safety factor of concrete is higher than that for steel?
because concrete is unpredictable than steel
What can break reinforced steel?
Concrete can be reiforced by using steel; steel can not be reinforced
What are advantage of compacting concrete using a steel rod?
I think you are talking about embedding steel rods (rebars) in concrete, right? This would make the concrete much stronger. It is called reinforced concrete, and you can make all sorts of structures with it, something that you can't do with ordinary concrete. Though, I am not even sure anyone is using non-reinforced concrete nowadays.

What was the Tacoma Bridge made out of?
The basic matetrials were steel and concrete.
What is more fire resistant steel or concrete?
Concrete is much more fire resistant. This is shown by the design of reinforced concrete structure where the steel is placed within the concrete. A major reason is that the concrete protects the steel from any fire. Steel only construction requires the steel to be covered in a fire protection material.

What matereals is the humber bridge made out of?
Mainly re-enforced concrete (concrete that's been set around steel rods). The cables are made from many long strands of steel.
