Why do structural designers study concrete materials?

Structural designers study building structures,

Building structure includes frame structure and concrete structure.

If we want to design a building, we must study the building materials and are not familiar with the performance of the materials. How can we make a scientific and reasonable architectural design?

Give a simple example:

If a cook wants to cook, he must study the nature and use of ingredients.

Make exquisite dishes, or you will make a joke.

Everyone knows that fried food is delicious.

But not all ingredients can be fried, such as fried tomatoes.

Architectural design is like cooking,

Without knowing the knowledge of concrete materials, it is impossible to design a scientific concrete structure building. The reason is the same.

Therefore, structural designers must learn the knowledge of concrete materials.
