The former is a composite material made up of two complementary, immiscible elements. In the second case, it's a composite consisting of a binder, called matrix, the concrete, and a reinforcement of long fibers, the steel bars. The fiber part — the steel bars — provides the tensile mechanical properties, while the binder called matrix in composites,...
