What is the maximum overlap of steel rods in reinforced concrete sections?
Steel reinforcing rods have minimum overlap requirements to ensure that the reinforcing has a continuous effect throughout the structure.In some instances this minimum overlap is 600mm, but the requirement does vary and must be confirmed by an Engineer for each particular design.Maximum overlaps would be used to ensure wastage is reduced, and to ensure adequate concrete cover.
Why steel is called rebar?
It's simply hardened steel that's been cast in long rods. It's used as reinforcing when pouring concrete to increase the strwength - especially in road construction or building foundations.
How much weight can a 5 concrete slab hold?
The strength will vary depending on the type of concrete, the base, and the presence or absence of steel or fiberglass reinforcing.
What is Reinforced cement concrete-RCC?
Concrete is very strong in compression but weak in tension. RCC is concrete with reinforcing steel bars in it. Steel is a really good material in tension. Steel carries the tensile load and thus RCC is strong in tension too. However, designers still try to ensure concrete is in compression wherever possible.
Why use rebar in concrete?
Concrete is good in compression, poor in tension. Steel is good in tension, poor in tension. By the addition of reinforcing steel into concrete, you take the strengths of one material and marry it to the weakness of the other. This provides a better product capable of better performance in the field.
How do you estimate the placing of rebars?
The placement of steel reinforcing is dependent on the requirements of the strength and load-bearing of the concrete. A structural engineer should be contacted in this regard.
What is one of the things you are trying to accomplish when consoliating concrete?
ensure concrete bonding around the reinforcing steel
How much does reinforced concrete cost?
Concrete is usually reinforced by adding steel. The cost of reinforcing concrete depends with the given area under which the steel is placed to reinforce it.
What were the materials used to build the itaipu dam?
concrete, probably with steel reinforcing

What are concrete beams for?
As I would interpret the question, I would refer to the nature of reinforcing to be placed within the concrete. Often in large beams, the reinforcing steel may be made up separately in "cages" and set in place for the concrete pour. The reinforcing may be comprised of shear, bending, torsional, and specialized support components.

What are frameworks for concrete beam?
As I would interpret the question, I would refer to the nature of reinforcing to be placed within the concrete.

What is steel reinforcement for concrete pavement called?
The reinforcement may be in the form of "mesh" or rods. The steel reinforcing rods are colloquially called rebar(reinforcement bars).
Heat treatment concrete reinforcing steel rod?
Most specifications recommend not heating (annealing) rebar because it can weaken it.
