Q: The advantage of reinforced concrete, is due to
  • A. monolithic charactereconomy because of less maintenance cost
  • B. fire-resisting and durability
  • C. economy because of less maintenance cost
  • D. All option are correct
Correct Answer: Option D - Reinforced concrete as an economic building material, is resist many types of loading. Concrete resists compression and steel reinforcement resists tension forces. Advantages of Reinforced Concrete– • The monolithic character of reinforced concrete gives it more rigidity. • Maintenance cost of RCC is practically nil. • It has good resistance to damage by fire and weathering (because of concrete) • It is durable and RCC prevent steel from rusting.
