← TechnologyWhich structural instability results when yielding rebar compromises concrete confinement?
A)Buckling of longitudinal reinforcement✓
B)Pore pressure induced cracking
C)Chloride ion migration acceleration
D)Alkali-silica reaction propagation
💡 Explanation
Longitudinal rebar buckling occurs because insufficient concrete confinement leads to reduced lateral support on the rebar after yielding during compression, therefore the rebar bends unstably rather than maintaining its load carrying capacity; pore pressure or chemical reactions cause other effects.
