In the construction sector, corrugated fiberglass bars are used as support and replacement for conventional steel bars, especially in restoration projects and in the construction of dikes and bridges. They offer both mechanical and chemical resistance, which has made their use more popular compared to conventional materials.
Conventional profiles are also used as façade elements, drip edges, balcony coverings, etc.
The properties offered by corrugated bars are numerous:
-
Resistance to chemical agents
-
Corrosion resistance
-
Mechanical strength
-
Light weight
-
Easy handling
In the construction sector, façade restructuring, constructions in saline or humid environments or near the sea, and prefabricated concrete elements are some of the applications of this material.
