Q3b
Steel reinforcement bars, which are made from mild steel, are used to resist the tension forces in concrete. They also control shearing in beams. The thinnest bars, used for making stirrups to hold other bars in position, are 6mm in diameter. Reinforcement bars range in diameter from 10mm to 25mm. Other bars which are called deformed bars are made with patterned surfaces to increase the bond between the steel and the concrete in highly stressed conditions. If the steel and concrete could bond well, then state the differences between the coefficient of thermal expansion of steel and concrete.
