Rebar: A Vital Component in Reinforced Concrete Structures
Rebar, or reinforcing bar, plays an indispensable role in construction, specifically in concrete reinforcement. Concrete is naturally strong under compressive forces but struggles under tension. Rebar compensates for this weakness, providing the tensile strength necessary to prevent cracking and structural failure. When combined with geotextiles, which offer soil stabilization and drainage control, rebar ensures the…
