Question

Accepted Answer

The properties of steel and concrete, PSC and RCC structures, execution strategy, and assisting the designer according to site conditions.

Steel has high tensile strength and is commonly used in construction for beams, columns, and reinforcement.
Concrete is a composite material made of cement, aggregates, and water, providing compressive strength and durability.
PSC (Prestressed Concrete) structures use pre-tensioning or post-tensioning techniques to enhance the strength of concrete elements.
RCC (Reinforced Concrete) structures have steel reinforcement embedded in concrete to resist tensile forces.
Execution strategy involves planning, scheduling, and coordinating construction activities to ensure efficient and timely completion.
Assisting the designer involves providing feedback on site conditions, such as soil properties, availability of resources, and potential construction challenges.

Accepted Answer

Because of the strain compatibility of both the material that is the concrete and steel,
