REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAME CONSTRUCTIONA hmet Yakut, Middle East Technical University, TurkeyBACKGROUNDR einforced CONCRETE is one of the most widely used modern building materials. CONCRETE is artificial stone obtained by mixing cement, sand, and aggregates with water. Fresh CONCRETE can be molded into almost any shape, which is an inherent advantage over other materials. CONCRETE became very popular after the invention of Portland cement in 9th century; however, its limited tension resistance prevented its wide use in building CONSTRUCTION . To overcome this weakness, steel bars are embedded in CONCRETE to form a composite material called REINFORCED CONCRETE . Developments in the modern REINFORCED CONCRETE design and CONSTRUCTION practice were pioneered by European engineers in the late 9th century.
Reinforced Concrete Frame Construction 3 of the key features required for desirable seismic behavior of building structures. It can be defined as the ability of a material to stretch (deform) significantly before failure.
