Definition:
Reinforced concrete is concrete in which reinforcement bars ("rebars"), reinforcement grids, plates or fibers have been incorporated to strengthen the concrete in tension.
It was invented by French gardener Joseph Monier in 1849 and patented in 1867. Prior to the invention of reinforcement, concrete was strong in compression, but weak in tension. Concrete tensile strength Concrete compressive strength /10

Introduction:
Composite action:
All reinforced concrete structures are designed on the assumption that the concrete does not resist any tensile forces.
The coefficients of thermal expansion for steel and for concrete are sufficiently close ( 10x10e-6 & 7-12x10e-6 / Co ) to avoid problems from differential expansion between the two materials over normal temperature ranges
