After we reach 5000 fallowers in tiktok and 1000 in telegram we will expand our program and add a website for civil engineering students that U can Get large articles,autocad files,excel sheets and templates
And I hope you will get more about civil engineering 👍

tension and compression play crucial roles in its structural integrity:
• Compression: Concrete is inherently strong in compression. This means it can withstand significant compressive forces without failing. When a load is applied to a concrete structure, the concrete primarily handles the compressive stresses.
• Tension: Concrete, however, is weak in tension. It tends to crack and fail under tensile stresses. To counteract this, steel reinforcement (rebar) is embedded within the concrete. Steel is strong in tension, so it absorbs the tensile forces that the concrete cannot handle
