Steel reinforcement bars add stability to concrete walls Do they also enhance the insulating value of concrete?
Concrete does not have a very good insulating value, and neither does steel. The mixture of the two will add structural stability to what you are building, but it (commonly) will not enhance the concrete's insulating value.
