Reinforcement – Contamination and rust
All reinforcement should be protected from contamination by grease, oil, mud, mould oil, excessive rust (especially if it is flaky) and ice, plus any mill scale or concrete that is loose. Once the reinforcement has been fixed, do not leave it exposed to the weather for long otherwise rust might form.

Reinforced concrete | Definition, Properties, Advantages,
Reinforced concrete, concrete in which steel is embedded in such a manner that the two materials act together in resisting forces. The reinforcing steel—rods, bars, or mesh—absorbs the tensile, shear, and sometimes the compressive stresses in a concrete structure.

Complete Guide to Using Rebar to Reinforce Concrete
Concrete is strong in compression but weak in tension. The addition of steel rebar addresses this shortcoming by absorbing tensile forces, which prevents cracking and structural failure. Rebar, or reinforcing bar, is a component in the reinforcement of concrete structures because of its high tensile strength and ability to bond well with …
