English term or phrase: steel reinforcing
It's about the demolition work of a damaged storage fuel tank.
It reads "...it has been proposed a method of hydro-demolition whereby the concrete can be entirely removed while preserving the steel reinforcing."
Would it be simply "refuerzos de acero"? Somehow this does not sound totally correct to me.
