Question

The purpose of reinforcement in prestressed concrete is

Answer 1

The purpose of reinforcement in prestressed concrete is :-
"to impart initial compressive stress in concrete."

Hope it helps you.

Answer 2

The purpose of reinforcement in concrete is to  prevent the collapse of the concrete structure

Explanation:

• There is a presence of initial compression stress in case of concrete.

• To test this initial compression stress avoid calculation is required .

• if the concrete is not pre-stressed then the initial compression stress would not be calculated and hence it would lead to the collapse of the concrete structure system hence the amount of tensile strength that the concrete is able to to hold should be calculated before the the construction is made.
