Where both concrete foundations and slabs use reinforced bars to improve strength and control cracking, foundations require a heavier rebar to support vertical structures. This sector typically ...

A corrosion-free composite rebar-reinforced floor slab, based on a lab-tested glass fiber-reinforced polymer rebar-specific punching shear equation, which performs like a steel-reinforced slab at a ...

In what’s become almost an annual rite of passage, concrete contractors at various industry conferences show me “war wounds” that have resulted from wire mesh and rebar (reinforcement bars). They wear ...

Reshoring meant to prevent concrete slab deflection under its own weight, similar to that shown in this photo of another project above, became a point of controversy among the Philadelphia hotel ...
