It is calculated by dividing the modulus of elasticity of steel by the modulus of elasticity of concrete. A higher modular ratio indicates that steel is stiffer than concrete.<\/p>\n<p>Tensile strength is the ability of a material to resist being pulled apart. Steel has a much higher tensile strength than concrete. This is why steel is often used as reinforcement in concrete structures. The steel reinforcement helps to resist the tensile stresses that are generated in the concrete when it is loaded.<\/p>\n<p>The following are the brief explanations of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option A: A higher modular ratio does not show higher compressive strength of concrete.
