What is the advantage of aluminum door and disadvantage of steel door?
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.

Why concrete bridges have steel rods inside them?
The steel rods are there to strengthen the concrete - making it reinforced concrete.
What are advantage and disadvantage of frame?
Advantages of steel frames include the fact that they are durable and strong. Disadvantages are that they are heavy and difficult to move. They are also hard to manufacture.
What was the Tacoma Bridge made out of?
The basic matetrials were steel and concrete.
How do you calculate the vol of steel to a given vol of concrete?
how calculate steel in concrete
What are the disadvantages of using calcium chloride in concrete?
One disadvantage of using calcium chloride in concrete is that it can lead to corrosion of reinforcing steel, which weakens the structure over time. Additionally, it can increase the rate of drying, potentially causing cracking and reducing the overall durability of the 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 are the essential steps for concrete slab preparation before starting a construction project?
The essential steps for preparing a concrete slab before construction are: Clearing and leveling the site Compacting the soil Installing a vapor barrier Adding a layer of gravel or sand Setting up formwork Reinforcing with steel mesh or rebar Pouring and leveling the concrete Curing the slab for strength and durability.
