Reinforced concrete is a building model that applies frames consist of steel bars. These fittings are utilized due to low resistance of concrete tensile stresses, which has high compression resistance.
In the case of a reinforced concrete structure, the use of steel pillars, beams and slabs is indispensable with a sizing well calculated by current standards of regulatory bodies.
The project is conducted by engineers in structural design that will scale the gauge of the steel to be used and the elements that make up the structure, as, determine the strength of concrete and the spacing between the steel bars.
