Steel bars are used to reinforce Insulated Concrete Forms.
Most bars are "deformed," that is, a pattern is rolled onto them which helps the concrete get a grip on the bar.
Plain concrete will carry extremely high compressive stresses, but any appreciable tension will cause rupture and consequent failure.
For this reason, plain concrete is limited in its use as a structural member subject to bending or direct tensile action.
When steel bars are incorporated into concrete, a reinforced concrete section is created.
This reinforced concrete section is much more efficient in carrying tensile forces due to bending or direct tension than a plain concrete section with the same dimensions.
The general rule is: concrete takes the compression, steel takes the tension.
