Concrete Technology

Concrete is a basic building block of our everyday world. It’s used in almost every type of structure that we build today. This engineering guide to concrete will give you a variety of information about concrete, including some best practices for various situations. Concrete is one of the most prevalent building materials known to man….

Fibers are utilized in cement to manage the cracking characteristics and reduce permeability. The surrounding concrete protects the steel used for reinforcement. Glass fiber reinforced concrete is used for architectural products and steel fibers are mostly used for paving and inside tunnels. History of Reinforced Concrete Fibers have been used for concrete reinforcement since prehistoric times though technology has improved significantly,…

Reinforced concrete is widely used for construction on a large scale due to its desirable mechanical properties. Types of steel and non-steel concrete reinforcement are described. Corrosion has an adverse effect on the embedded steel if structures are not properly designed and constructed. What is Reinforced Concrete? Reinforced concrete, or RCC, is concrete that contains…
