Reinforced Concrete is often referred to as reinforced Concrete (tong) in engineering. It refers to a combination of materials that work together to improve the mechanical properties of concrete by adding steel mesh, steel plate or fiber in concrete. It is a common form of reinforced concrete Z. Kunshan Jianguo concrete

The invention of reinforced concrete appears in more recent times, generally attributed to French gardener en:Joseph Monier (English), who invented it in 1849 and patented it in 1867, including reinforced concrete flowerpots and, soon after, reinforced concrete beams and columns for highway guardrails. In 1872, the world's first reinforced concrete structure of the building was completed in New York, the United States, a new era in the history of human architecture began, reinforced concrete structure after 1900 in the engineering field has been used on a large scale. In 1928, a new type of reinforced concrete structure, prestressed reinforced concrete appeared, and after the Second World War was also widely used in engineering practice. The invention of reinforced concrete and the use of steel in construction in the mid-19th century made it possible to build tall buildings and long-span Bridges. Kunshan concrete

At present in China, reinforced concrete for the application of Z a structural form, accounting for the vast majority of the total, at the same time, China is also the world's use of reinforced concrete structure Z areas. Its main raw material cement output has reached 1.882 billion tons in 2010, accounting for about 70% of the world's total output.
