Composite rebar is gaining popularity in the construction industry all over the world. California is also no exception. This material can be used in the construction of subways, bridges, rooms for magnetic resonance imaging.
Areas of application of composite fiberglass reinforcement
- for the construction of foundations;
- for reinforcing the road surface;
- during the construction of infrastructure facilities;
- to restore worn-out infrastructure facilities;
- for reinforcement of brick and stone walls;
- in constructions based on gypsum binders;
- during the construction and strengthening of bridges;
- for reinforcement of coastlines;
- during the repair of housing and communal services; during cottage construction.
Why do I need to reinforce concrete?
Concrete is one of the most popular building materials, which is used at almost every stage of the construction of buildings. Concrete tolerates the compression load well, but cannot withstand tensile loads. Therefore, uneven loads in the stretching zones lead to cracks and further destruction of structures.
Reinforcement with composite rebar allows you to strengthen the structure of concrete, makes it more resistant to heavy loads.
Concrete and composite have almost the same coefficient of thermal expansion, thanks to this, the structure will not deform even with strong temperature changes.
Advantages of composite reinforcement
Corrosion resistance
| Fiberglass rods are very resistant to corrosion processes. Composite rods do not change their strength characteristics when working in an alkaline or other aggressive environment. |
High strength | The strength indicators of fiberglass rods are almost 3 times higher than metal ones. |
Radion transparency | Composite rods do not interfere with electromagnetic waves, so they are used at special-purpose facilities: for military installations, airports and medical institutions (for MRI and X-ray rooms), etc. |
Low thermal conductivity | The coefficient of thermal conductivity of fiberglass rods is 80 times lower than that of steel, which prevents the occurrence of”cold bridges”. |
Low weight | Due to the low weight of composite rods, the total weight of the entire structure is reduced. |
Durability | The service life of composite rods is more than 80 years. |
