tensile stress that the concrete compression member would otherwise experience due to a bending load.

Aluminium

Aluminium is a soft, lightweight, malleable metal. The yield strength of pure aluminium is 7-11 MPa, while aluminium alloys have yield strengths ranging from 200 MPa to 600 MPa. Aluminium has about one-third the density and stiffness of steel. It is ductile, and easily machined, cast, and extruded.

Corrosion resistance is excellent
