Project Description
Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta utilized FORTA-FERRO® macro synthetic fiber in conjunction with traditional steel in this suspended walkway.
This bridge is an exterior application which will be exposed to the elements and ambient temperature fluctuations. Heating elements were installed in the concrete. FORTA-FERRO macro synthetic fibers were specified to be added to the concrete for optimal crack control and durability to counteract the thermal variations of this structure’s service environment.
A superior broom finish was achieved thanks to FORTA-FERRO being the best mixing and finishing fiber of its kind in the industry.
