Under reinforcement is safe because in this case steel fails before concrete.

What do you mean by honeycomb in concrete?

Honeycomb is a defect in the hardened cement concrete consisting of many air pockets or voids due to which concrete deteriorates by entrapment of moisture that causes corrosion of reinforcement bars resulting in failure of structural members over a period of time if not rectified at the earliest.


What is the effect of hydration on strength of a concrete?

Excess water (over hydration) causes weak concrete. The water in concrete is there to start a chemical process which results in the hardening process. The excess water is not used in the chemical process and results in a weakened concrete.

Why iron metal is used in building construction?

It deals with the tension and compression of the concrete. Concrete is a really great material when in comes to compression. It has a high strength in compression but little in the way of tension. You can test this for your self. Get a small unreinforced piece of concrete and pull it apart it ( put it in tension) and it breaks fairy easily. Now, try pushing together (put it in compression) and it doesn't break anywhere near as easily, if you can break it at all. Steel is the opposite. It has more strength in tension than in compression. Putting steel bars in concrete allows you to have good strength in compression and in tension. In an easy way to understand it and get the general idea, when the reinforced concrete is under tension, the steel bars take over, and when the reinforced concrete is under compression, the concrete takes over.

What is the difference Between under reinforced section and over reinforced section?

When the maximum stresses in steel and concrete simultaniously reaches allowable value the section is called balanced section when the %of steel in a section is less than that required for a balanced section it is under reinforced section when the %of steel in a section is more than that required for a balanced section it is over reinforced sectionover reinforcement is as per section design I.e Ast1+Ast2>Ast Ast1+Ast2
