Composite Rebar
Description
Composite rebar is a modern construction material gradually replacing traditional steel reinforcing bars due to its enhanced performance characteristics. It is made from composite fibers impregnated with special binding agents, providing high strength, durability, and resistance to aggressive environments.
Properties and Benefits
High Strength
Offers tensile strength 3 times higher than steel rebar.
Lightweight
9–11 times lighter than steel counterparts while maintaining equivalent strength.
Corrosion Resistance
Unaffected by destruction in aggressive environments.
Thermal Insulation
Prevents thermal bridges, reducing heat loss in structures.
Versatility
Available as rods or coils, allowing flexible application.
Applications
Reinforcement of Concrete Structures
Used in civil and industrial construction projects.
Pavement and Bridge Reinforcement
Enhances strength and longevity in road and bridge infrastructure.
Aggressive Environments
Ideal for projects exposed to marine water or chemical production environments.
Hydraulic and Agricultural Structures
Applied in the construction of greenhouses, pools, and hydraulic structures.
