Concrete supports our bridges, highways, buildings, and foundations, yet even seemingly solid structures can develop cracks. Why does this happen? In this episode, we examine the engineering principles of stress, strain, tensile strength, compression, and reinforced concrete. Using real-world structural failures and an example from popular television, we explain how engineers predict cracking, prevent catastrophic failures, and design structures that remain safe under enormous loads.
