Structural Engineering
Structural engineering is a subset of civil engineering, focusing on the “bones and muscles” of man-made structures. Structural engineers are also responsible for calculating the strength and stability of load-bearing structures to withstand earthquakes, wind, and other natural disasters. In other words, the ultimate goal of a structural engineer is to make sure that these structures are able to defy the stresses and pressures of the environment they’re built in and that they will be safe and stable for a long time. To do this, they are also responsible for evaluating, estimating, and choosing the right materials for the construction of a structure, as well as computing and determining loads and grade requirements for them
Reinforced cement concrete (RCC)
Reinforced cement concrete (RCC) is a type of concrete that uses reinforcing fibers to improve the strength and stability of the concrete. The fibers are woven into the concrete before it’s poured, and they help to distribute pressure and stress throughout the material. This makes RCC more resistant to compressive loading and less likely to crack or shatter under stress. It is also more durable than traditional concrete, which means it can last longer without needing repairs or replacements
