Define steel reinforced concrete?
Steel reinforced concrete is concrete with rods of steel running through it.
What is the difference between structural steel and reinforcement steel?
structual steel is the widw flange column's and beam's as well as plate steel angle iron ect.. it falls under aws D1.1 welding code. reinforcement steel/reinforcing steel is the rebar, dba,(deformed bar anchor), hsa, (headed stud anchor) that is placed in concrete, floors, walls, footings, ect... it falls under aws D1.4 welding code
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.
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.
Why the partial safety factor of concrete is higher than that for steel?
because concrete is unpredictable than steel
Define steel reinforced concrete?
Steel reinforced concrete is concrete with rods of steel running through it.
Why concrete bridges have steel rods inside them?
The steel rods are there to strengthen the concrete - making it reinforced concrete.
How do you calculate the vol of steel to a given vol of concrete?
how calculate steel in concrete
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.

Why partial safety factor of concrete is more than steel?
Concrete is unpredictable compared to steel...
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.
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.
Why the partial safety factor for concrete is higher than that for steel?
because concrete is unpredictable than steel
