Reinforced Concrete Using Steel Sheet

A novel prefabricated sandwich panel consisting of profiled steel sheet as a core material and textile reinforced concrete trc as outer skins was developed.

Reinforced concrete using steel sheet.

Reinforced cement concrete structures are sturdy if correctly designed and laid. Reinforced concrete or reinforced cement concrete rcc is concrete that consists of steel bars plates or fibres that strengthen the concrete. The steel must have appropriate deformations to provide strong bonds and interlocking of both materials. The load carrying capacity of concrete has increased due to these materials hence it is widely used in all the structures.

Reinforced concrete beams are used in all manner of concrete framed buildings including residential buildings offices car parks and many other structures. Reinforced concrete is a combination of traditional cement concrete with reinforcements steel bar. High tensile deformed bar it is highly ductile. This combination is made to utilize the compressive strength of concrete and tensile strength of steel simultaneously.

Since concrete is a brittle material and is strong in compression. The use of stainless steel reinforcement ssr has so far been limited mainly due to high costs and lack of design guides and standards. It is weak in tension so steel is used inside concrete for strengthening and reinforcing the tensile strength of concrete. Reinforced cement concrete sections can be easily given any form by designing the formwork thus making it extra suitable for architectural requirements.

Following are the major reasons behind this. Corrosion resistant steel reinforcement in concrete structures noncor was formed. Even though there are lots of metals like aluminium cast iron available for reinforcing concrete mild steel is the most widely used reinforcing material in reinforced concrete. Trc consists of cementitious binder and an alkali resistant glass textile as reinforcement.

Steel reinforcement provides flexibility in reinforced cement concrete structures. In reinforced concrete the components work together to resist many types of loading. Though there are many metals like aluminum cast iron copper available for reinforcing concrete steel is most widely used as reinforcing material in reinforced concrete. This will avoid cracking of concrete in tension.

Reinforced concrete is economical as it allows a very small quantity of steel very effectively by placing this steel at exactly where it is most effective at the bottom of the section. As rebars imparts tensile strength to concrete metals used for rebars should possess good tensile strength.
