Answer:

Steel

Explanation:

    In a contemporary reinforced concrete structure, steel's basic function is to resist tensile stresses. This is because the concrete does not have sufficient tensile strength to absorb the stresses of a building. In this logic, during the performance of the structural calculation, the regions subject to the tensile forces must be armed. For example, in the case of simply supported slabs, under the action of vertical loads directed from top to bottom, the reinforcement must be placed on the bottom face of the slab.

1. Which statement best describes differences in the Great Hypostyle Hall and the Pantheon?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1. One uses post-and-lintel construction; the other is made of poured concrete.

2. Like Greek architecture, Roman buildings often made use of pediments and columns.

Explanation:

1. One uses post-and-lintel construction; the other is made of poured concrete.

The Great hypo-style Hall is situated within the Karnak temple complex, in the Precinct of Amon-Re. The hall is one of the most visited monuments in Ancient Egypt. This hall was built by Pharaoh Seti 1 around 1250 BC 19th. The Great hypostyle Hall uses post and lintel construction  

The name Pantheon is a Greek adjective which means “Honor all Gods. The Pantheon temple is a former Roman temple that is now a church in Rome, Italy was commissioned by Marcus Agrippa during the reign of Augustus. The Pantheon is made of poured concrete

The major difference between them is one uses post-and-lintel construction while the other is made of poured concrete.

2. Like Greek architecture, Roman buildings often made use of pediments and columns.

The Greek architecture refers to the architecture of the Greek-speaking peoples who occupied the Greek mainland, the islands of the Aegean Sea, the Greek colonies in Ionia (coastal Asia Minor), and Magna Graecia (Greek colonies in Italy and Sicily). The Greek-speaking people use columns and pediments in deigning their architectural work.
