Concrete has great compressive strength the ability to withstand downward pressure but very little tensile strength the ability to withstand bending.
Rebar known when massed as reinforcing steel or reinforcement steel is a steel bar or mesh of steel wires used as a tension device in reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry structures to strengthen and aid the concrete under tension.
Concrete is strong under compression but has weak tensile strength.
Both epoxy coated and zinc coated steel bars are permitted to use in masonry structures and they may be utilized when corrosion protected.
Utilization of deformed steel bars in masonry wall.
The steel reinforcement bars are usually categorized based on minimum yield stress of the steel which employed to manufacture the steel bars.
