Steel girders demonstrating structural reinforcement in buildings, bridges, and homes to prevent failure.
Examples of how steel structures use reinforcement for stability

Reinforcing Your Design

Steel structures like the ones pictured have several connections between the main structure. This allows the design to be strengthened and creates more stability. If the main structures were only connected in one area, then it will be at risk for failure if that one connection fails. This is why you will find structures like buildings, bridges, and homes have several braces to reinforce their structure.
