Description
FORTA-FERRO macro synthetic fibers were used to reinforce this slab-on-metal deck at a dosage of 4.0 lb/cu yd. Reinforcement fibers were used because of the cost savings compared to steel, as well as eliminating the need to store and place wire mesh. FORTA-FERRO is also durable and long-lasting, which positively impacts the long-term cost savings of each project. Traditional wire mesh and rebar corrode and succumb to the natural elements forcing owners to patch, resurface or replace the original project, costing more time and more money
