Reinforced Concrete I & II according ACI 318M-08

Many structures are built of reinforced concrete: bridges, viaducts, buildings, retaining walls, tunnels, tanks, conduits, and others. Reinforced concrete is a logical union of two materials: plain concrete, which possesses high compressive strength but little tensile strength, and steel bars embedded in the concrete, which can provide the needed strength in tension. First practical use of reinforced concrete was known in the mid-1800s. In the first decade of the 20th century, progress in reinforced concrete was rapid. Since the mid-1950s, reinforced concrete design practice has made the transition from that based on elastic methods to one based on strength. Understanding of reinforced concrete behavior is still far from complete; building codes and specifications that give design procedures are continually changing to reflect latest knowledge.
