RESOURCE PROVIDING OF THE REINFORCED CONCRETE ADAPTIVENESS
Basic principles of the reinforced concrete adaptation have been given in the article. The reinforced concrete possesses the capacity for structural and functional adaptation, the sources of which is the combination of internal reactions and processes, taking place in the concrete and steel armature as wellas in the area of their contact. The structural and functional adaptation of the reinforced concrete leads to the retaining of its consumer characteristics in the range of values, providing the set level of the functional state of reinforceconcrete element in the building or structure while operating influence of loadings and environment.
