Steel embedded in cement mortar in the uniaxial compressive stress direction was found to decrease by 80% the compressive longitudinal strain at a given stress and increase by 300% the tensile transverse strain at a given longitudinal strain. The former effect is due to longitudinal confinement of mortar by steel. The latter is due to debonding at the steel-mortar interface.
