The table below shows computed reinforcement ratios for 10 stress tensors. The applied reinforcement yield stress is = 500 N/mm². The mass density of the reinforcing bars is 7800 kg/m 3. In the table is the computed brittle material stress.
Within the trades rebar is known by a shorthand utilizing the bar diameter as descriptor, such as "four-bar" for bar that is four-eighths (or one-half) of an inch. The cross-sectional area of a bar, as given by πr ², works out to (bar size/9.027)², which is approximated as (bar size/9)² square inches.
The reinforcement in a RC structure, such as a steel bar, has to undergo the same strain or deformation as the surrounding concrete in order to prevent discontinuity, slip or separation of the two materials under load. Maintaining composite action requires transfer of load between the concrete and steel.
The reinforcement is usually, though not necessarily, steel reinforcing bars (known as rebar) and is usually embedded passively in the concrete before the concrete sets. However, post-tensioning is also employed as a technique to reinforce the concrete. In terms of volume used annually, it is one of the most common engineering materials.

Reinforcement bars are pre-installed, just like in the case of conventionally cast concrete, and the rheology of the concrete is adapted to retain the shape of the slipforming formwork before concrete hydrates enough to sustain self-weight. [14] Concrete facade mullions of varying cross-sections are produced for a DFAB house [15] in Switzerland.
Reinforcing rebar is placed axially in the column to provide additional axial stiffness. Accounting for the additional stiffness of the steel, the nominal loading capacity P n for the column in terms of the maximum compressive stress of the concrete f c ' , the yield stress of the steel f y , the gross cross section area of the column A g , and ...
