The finished product has high compressive strength， and low resistance to tension, such that its tensile strength is approximately one tenth lf its compressive strength。 Consequently， tensile and shear reinforcement in the tensile regions of sections has to be provided to compensate for the weak tension regions in the reinforced concrete element.It is this deviation in the composition of a reinforces concrete section from the homogeneity of standard wood or steel sections that requires a modified approach to the basic principles of structural design. The two components of the heterogeneous reinforced concrete section are to be so arranged and proportioned that optimal use is made of the materials involved. This is possible because concrete can easily be given any desired shape by placing and compacting the wet mixture of the constituent ingredients are properly proportioned， the finished product becomes strong, durable， and, in combination with the reinforcing bars， adaptable for use as main members of any structural system。The techniques necessary for placing concrete depend on the type of member to be cast： that is, whether it is a column， a bean， a wall， a slab， a foundation。 a mass columns， or an extension of previously placed and hardened concrete. For beams, columns, and walls， the forms should be well oiled after cleaning them, and the reinforcement should be cleared of rust and other harmful materials。 In foundations, the earth should be compacted and thoroughly moistened to about 6 in。 in depth to avoid absorption of the moisture present in the wet concrete. Concrete should always be placed in horizontal layers which are compacted by means of high frequency power-driven vibrators of either the immersion or external type， as the case requires， unless it is placed by pumping。 It must be kept in mind, however, that over vibration can be harmful since it could cause segregation of the aggregate and bleeding of the concrete.Hydration of the cement takes place in the presence of moisture at temperatures above 50F. It is necessary to maintain such a condition in order that the chemical hydration reaction can take place。 If drying is too rapid， surface cracking takes place. This would result in reduction of concrete strength due to cracking as well as the failure to attain full chemical hydration。It is clear that a large number of parameters have to be dealt with in proportioning a reinforced concrete element， such as geometrical width, depth， area of reinforcement， steel strain, concrete strain, steel stress, and so on. Consequently， trial and adjustment is necessary in the choice of concrete sections， with assumptions based on conditions at site， availability of the constituent materials, particular demands of the owners， architectural and headroom requirements， the applicable codes， and environmental reinforced concrete is often a siteconstructed composite, in contrast to the standard millfabricated beam and column sections in steel structures。A trial section has to be chosen for each critical location in a structural system。 The trial section has to be analyzed to determine if its nominal resisting strength is adequate to carry the applied factored load。 Since more than one trial is often
