FIBROBETON POLI STR

Fibrobeton is a concrete reinforced with metal and/or polymer fibres (non-metallic) specifically designed for the industrial concrete pavements.‎ Fibrobeton is available in the POLI version that incorporates non structural polymer fibres, POLI STR with structural polymer fibres, METAL with metallic fibres and HYBRID which contains both non-structural polymer fibres and metallic fibres for: - slabs of medium-low thickness (12-15 cm) - slabs without steel mesh - thin pavements overlying existing floors - floors of industrial buildings and workshops subjected to impact forces from falling metal objects (anti-shock floor coverings) The metallic fibre reinforcement of Fibrobeton Metal or the structural polymer reinforcement of Fibrobeton Poli STR, in fact, allows: - elimination of the labour intensive operation of correctly placing the steel mesh; - cost savings in the amount of steel mesh and spacers necessary for its correct positioning; - improvements in the safety of workers who are not forced to walk on the reinforcement during the concrete casting.‎ In addition to these economic benefits, Fibrobeton Metal and Fibrobeton Poli STR also provide significant technical advantages, in that due to the contribution of the fibre beyond the elastic limit, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the flooring as well as substantially limit the appearance of macroscopic cracks on the surface of the floor.‎ Fibrobeton Metal and Fibrobeton Poli STR, in fact, are capable of counteracting the stresses that form in the concrete to reduce crack width to below 0.‎1 mm.‎ Fibrobeton Metal and Fibrobeton Poli STR are also particularly useful for pavements subjected to falling metal objects, such as often happens in engineering workshops.‎ The fibre reinforcement, in fact, can transform Fibrobeton Metal and Fibrobeton Poli STR into a tough and ductile concrete capable of resisting collisions and impacts.‎ Further info from manufacturer on FIBROBETON POLI STR Betonrossi
