2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the compressive strength of concrete compared to its tensile strength?
Think about the relationship between the two strengths.
Why is reinforcement added to concrete beams?
Consider what happens to concrete under tension.
What is the primary reason concrete beams require reinforcement?
Think about the properties of concrete.
True or False: The ACI-318 code is not necessary for reinforced concrete design.
Consider the safety regulations in engineering.
Given a beam with a known compressive strength of 3,000 psi, calculate its tensile strength and describe what considerations should be made when designing this beam.
What ratio of tensile to compressive strength should you apply?
Discuss potential consequences if a designer fails to consult the ACI-318 code during the design process.
Think about the protection that codes provide.
