Reinforced-concrete: Along with steel and (acres of) glass, this is the most important building material in the canon and palette of modern architecture. Developed in France from the 1850s, it is a hugely strong material that has a raw beauty of its own. It is usually strengthened using reinforcement bars (rebars) – mainly made of steel – giving the concrete higher tensile strength.
