It's possible to physically separate components of a heterogeneous mixture.
Example: Soil, concrete etc.
While the homogeneous material is uniform through out and we can't see the individual chemicals or ingredients.
Example: Air, rain water, steel etc.

Yes, concrete is a heterogeneous mixture. Because of in mixture different ingredients are there (cement, sand, aggregates and water).
Homogeneous means only one material of mixture.
Homogeneous means only one material of mixture.

But the Q is assumed. The concrete is assumed as homogeneous.

Rcc beam is ASSUMED as a homogeneous material.

Yes, it is right that's why we take a separate factor of safety for reinforcement and for concrete.

It is heterogeneous but in design, it is assumed homogeneous.

We are designed it as a homogeneous material but it should be in nature it acts like as a heterogeneous material am I right?

Yes, a reinforced concrete beam is made of heterogeneous material but we assume in design its a homogenous structure.

Here asking assume so we take heterogeneous or homogeneous?
