Project Description
Having worked with FORTA in the past, the engineers chose to specify FORTA-FERRO for a large fulfillment center located in Euclid, OH. This slab-on-metal deck project is 23,000 cu yd with a fiber dosage of 7.5 lb/cu yd. Fibers were chosen for the convenience of being able to pump the reinforced concrete up to the decks instead of having to haul steel up multiple floors. This in turn saves time and eliminates working hazards for employees. In addition, FORTA-FERRO fibers provide durability to the concrete both for surface toughness and to help with any cracking. In the end, the contractors loved the workability and finish.
Key Points:
- Increase Safety
