The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Depends on what the concrete is made of.
Not having rebar means it's going to be significantly more stable over time since you no longer have to worry about de-alkelineization (spelling is hard), and rust causing expansive forces inside the concrete and cracking it.
The chemical composition of the concrete will probably be improved over time as budget allows, increasing its longevity quite significantly.
Ancient structures used iron pins and bars, but they were covered with lead to protect them from rusting, plus lead is also plenty soft enough to not damage concrete.
Yes we all know lead is toxic, so just don't lick the lead covered pins/rebar during construction ๐
Mmmm, lead-covered-rebars
