nonreinforced
Lacking added support
Nonreinforced describes materials or structures lacking internal strengthening elements.
Concrete is nonreinforced when it contains no steel bars or mesh: The nonreinforced foundation cracked under pressure.
In psychology, nonreinforced behavior receives no reward or punishment, making it likely to fade through extinction.
