Why is reinforced concrete better than normall concrete?
reinforced concrete is better than unreinforced concrete for one major reason. concrete is an extremely strong material when it is put under pressure. however, when tension forces are introduced it will tend to fail without reinforcement. short answer: unreinforced concrete will handle a lot of weight, but it is very brittle. source: carpenter
Can you put osb board on top of concrete so that carpet can be laid on top of it?
Not really a good idea. The water over time from the concrete will cause the board damage. If you use a good pad there is no reason you cannot lay the carpet over concrete.
Titanium is used to make hip joints because it is unreactive true or false?
This is true, however it is not the only reason titanium is used for hip joints. It is also very strong and significantly lighter than steel.
Is wet concrete heavier then dry concrete?
Concrete is made of a mixture of cement, aggregate (small stones), fine aggregate (sand), water and other chemical additives. When mixed the wet concrete will remain so for Most people assume that set concrete has no water in it, this is not so, as the water content helps bond the aggregates and cement, this process is known as Hydration. Concrete with no water in it would crumble to dust. Adding more water to the mix will make a concrete that is easier to work, while less water will produce a stronger, more durable concrete. After initial setting of the concrete, a slow amount of water loss is expected due to the concrete drying, it can take anything up to a year for water to stop evaporating slowly out of the concrete. So for this reason the answer to your question is yes, dry, set concrete will weigh less than wet concrete, but for anything up to a year it will keep getting lighter, due to waterloss.
How do you control hot shortness?
The main reason of hot sortness is sulphur in steel. Therefore, answer of control of hot sortness is to control the sulphur in liquid steel before casting
Why are there gaps between the slabs of concrete pavements?
There are 2 reasons for that. Reason one: They can be expansion joints. In the winter the pavement contracts and in the summer it expands. these joints are generally gaps that go the whole way threw the pavement. Generally these joints are filled with some sort of caulking to keep moisture from getting underneath the pavement. Reason two: They can be put there as joints for the concrete to crack. when sidewalks are made and other concrete pavements, they anticipate the concrete cracking, so they put in gaps that dont go all the way threw the depth of the concrete as a place for the concrete to crack and not be unsightly.
Is cracking at joints acceptable after new pour of concrete?
Cracking at expansion joints is always acceptable and is the reason for the joint itself. There are two kinds of cracks, pretty ones and ugly ones! Ugly ones are random cracks where the concrete relieves itself from drying shrinkage in a random location within the slab of concrete which is normally not appealing to the eye. Expansion joints are placed at predetermined intervals within the slab where random cracks are weakened planes in locations where cracking is predicted prior to fresh concrete placement. All concrete shrinks when it dries, the larger the slab, the greater the overall shrinkage. When the tensile strength of drying shrinkage exceeds the tensile strength of the concrete, cracking will occur. Lets just hopes it cracks in a spot where we planned it instead of a location where didn't. By the way, joints should be cut at least 25% of the depth of the slab.

What is the functional category of joints that has the least amount of movement?
The functional category of joints that has the least amount of movement is called synarthrosis joints. These joints are immovable and provide stability and support to the body. Examples include the sutures in the skull.

What is the reason for a knocking noise when i drive i changed ball joints and control arms i noticed my axels have holes in the boots and they also have some play Is that the cause of the knocking?
If when you turn a corner the knocking noise gets louder and more pronounced, then you have defective CV joints. The fact that the boots have holes in them, would indicate that water and dust has been able to contact the joints. This will cause them to self-destruct. This can be very dangerous, and if one breaks while you are driving you may have an accident. Replace th CV joints and replace the boots covering them.
