Dosed at amounts equivalent to conventional reinforcement, these fibers are distributed three dimensionally throughout the concrete section. Can synthetic fibers compete “head-to-head” with steel?

Steel can stretch, adding steel bars gives the concrete some tensile strength to go along with its compressive strength. Rebar also allows for thinner slabs and other members. Rebar or mesh ...

According to a July 2022 bulletin by the Concrete Reinforcement Steel Institute, concrete reinforcement bars marked with a W can be considered as dual grade. Changes to ASTM A615-20 specification ...
