Concrete is made from cement and other materials such as fly ash and slag, coarse aggregate made of crushed stone, fine aggregate such as sand and water. The aggregates are used to form the paste, while the sand or cement keeps it from wearing out easily, and the water to make it easy to smooth out.

How many pounds of rebar are in typical concerete per cubic yard?

It would depend on the CY of concrete. For example, a cubic yard of concrete in a transferbeam will have FAR more rebar in it than a simple stem wall. I believe 150lb/cy is used pretty widely for general estimating purposes but should be adjusted depending on what you're estimating.

Why shirinkage in concerete?

Shrinkage in concrete occurs due to the loss of moisture during the curing process. As the water evaporates, the concrete material contracts and reduces in volume. This shrinkage can lead to cracks forming in the concrete if not properly controlled. Factors such as mix design, curing methods, and environmental conditions can influence the extent of shrinkage in concrete.
