    Thanks for this video. Never thought the placement of the rebar is also crucial. I thought, just put it in the concrete, then it is reinforced. Actually, there is a proper method for it! Thanks a million!!!

      Hi Mate, thanks for your comment, Yeah, there is quite a bit of science and calculation that goes into not only the placement but the size and number of bars etc.

    Hey i think its a great video but saying steel is not strong in compression is misleading, steel is strong in both compression and tension. I agree that the slender reinforcement members will buckle but they were intentionally made slender for the purpose of reinforcing the concrete members.

      @TRUpachucos 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      What he probably meant to say or should've said was steel IS bad under compression in keeping it's original form and concrete is NOT...because the bond in the molecules of steel deform and create new bonds under compression which weakens the overall form/shape while concrete keeps its original bonds under equal or greater loads.

      Your words are right but the explainer wasn’t wrong though. There is no such a perfect strength of steel at compression. It’s actually deteriorated. That’s why engineers don’t use steel in the applications of high compressive loading because they don’t know when it will possibly fail and at what stress value.
      check wikipedia, compressive strength

    You also reinforce concrete, not to just make it stronger but it inherently makes the construction process cheaper as you need less materials to get the same strength

    i appreciate with what you tried to explain in this video.. I'd only like to add that steel bars have same strength fy in tension as well as compression.. buckling is another thing.. that's why in columns steel is also used to increase their axial load carrying capacity apart from the unbalanced moment induced, but main force is axial in columns.. So steel are both used in tensile as well as compressive reinforcement depending upon the members of the structure..

    Steel is very strong in both tension and compression and therefore has high compressive and tensile strengths.

    • @Buildsum
      @Buildsum  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Mate, agreed however the dimension that we use for reinforcement will deform easily under compression and therefore not provide any compressive resistance to the concrete.

    Sad part is that my teacher used this animation as evidence that concrete beams can bend, without cracking or breaking, mind you... Shame an educational video didn't educate a teacher, but that says more about my teacher than anything else.

    • @Buildsum
      @Buildsum  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi Mate, that is unfortunate to hear. The bending in this video is grossly exagerated to make the movement and the effect stand out. While the slab or beam can "bend" or prehaps better called "flex" it would be such a small amount that it would not be visable to the human eye and almost always result in cracking.

    3:53, this reinforcement would more than likely be designed as a "two way" slab...They would have, more than likely, continued the lower reinforced steel out, over the "overhang" / cantilever.
    As it is now, this has a high chance of failure under load...
    Typically, cantilevers get designed as a two way...(load design)...(had to edit post as my phone's auto correct changed wording-it happens).

    if concrete bars are very strong when compressed, why do we use reinforcement is concrete columns. The concrete columns are only compressed aren't they?

    • @Buildsum
      @Buildsum  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi Parsi
      While columns are mainly in compression due to the weight of the building above they are still subjected to side ways forces which will place tension forces on the columns therefore requiring reinforcement.

    Hi Buildsum. My plumbers have cut a 300mm channel through a concrete bathroom floor to take the waste pipe/drain etc. In regard to filling this back in, would you use steel mesh and rebar drilled in to each side of the cut walls of the slab or just steel mesh? Thanks for all the great videos and detailed explanations.

    • @Buildsum
      @Buildsum  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi John
      Have they cut out any reinforcement when they cut the channel, if not then all good just fill it in with concrete. If they have cut out reinforcement then I would want to replace it, rebar or mesh would work as long as you can drill it in on both sides and epoxy it into place. Basically, it just has to be equivalent to what was there in the first place.

    • @johnhudson7977

    • @Buildsum

      Hi Mate, as a general rule I always use reinforcement. As for the strength it really depends on the use of the concrete in the end and should be designed by a Structural Engineer.

  • @hippo-potamus
    @hippo-potamus 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    So your example has nothing to do with the vast majority who only use concrete for slabs which are not suspended but rather supported by the earth underneath them. In that case what would be the reason to use rebar? And in case you reply with load bearing walls those are generally further supported by a deeper footing under those areas. Thanks for the reply.

    • @Buildsum
      @Buildsum  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Mate, Even slabs on the ground have footings and as the soil is prone to shrink away from under the slabs they are still designed as if the earth is not there. Effecively the earth is only a formwork. In extreamly reactive soils you may get the ground moving and pushing up on the slab, in these cases extra reinforcework may be needed in the top of the slab to counteract these forces. The point of the video was to show how the reinforcement works to strengthen the concrete and how we can be economical with its placement so we are not just filling the entire slab up where it is not needed. This is really the role of the structrual engineer to work out where the reinforcment is going to be required. Hope this helps.

    • @Buildsum
      @Buildsum  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Mate, the compression is created by the load on the beam. The load is trying to push the beam down while the supports are pushing against the load. This imparts the forces into the beam. Hope this helps

      Concrete buckles in roads and footpaths where there is not enough allowance for expansion. As it sets concrete "grows" and if it is adjacent or confined in an area it will apply pressure on those surrounding objects.This can be overcome by using expansion joints.

      yes it does...sorry for not being specific....the concrete under tension does not buckle and crack because of the compression....to give an example is upon curing the concrete I have worked with is cooked to a temperature of 145 degrees f without tension and then the ends of each panel or pile are cut thus producing tension and closing each fracture or crack....the rapid heating and cooling of concrete or extreme heating of concrete (not under tension/compression) will crack

  • @ApprenticeGM
    @ApprenticeGM 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love your videos, they are very useful, and the imaging work you do makes the explanations clear and simple. Thank you!
    However in this video you said something I know to be wrong "steel is week in compression". It's just not true. Try compressing a cube of steel under a press sometime! According to structural properties steel is approximately equal in compression and tension. However, if you draw out long thin shapes, like steel re-inforcing mesh, or steel rebar, then yes, in those shapes it deforms under compressive loads. This is where the combination of steel inside concrete - which stops it deforming - makes the end result much stronger in compression and tension at a very reasonable cost (building in steel only is too expensive lol). Massive ships like oil tankers are built in steel and have enormous compression loads on various parts under sea states like big waves but do fine without alternative "strong in compression" materials as the member shapes aren't long and thin like rebar / mesh.

    • @Buildsum
      @Buildsum  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Mate, Yes i agree, perhaps I expressed it the wrong way, I should have said something like "steel in the form that we use it will deform under compression" but I hope it still gets the point across about how the steel completments the concrete to form strong building elements.
