  2. In the early 1970s, glass fibre reinforced concrete (GFRC) was launched to the building sector in the United Kingdom. It is now one of the most widely used and inventive construction materials in the United States, Europe, Asia, and especially in the Gulf Region. • In this blog, we will discuss the benefits of glass reinforced concrete and why it’s a popular choice in Dubai.

  3. Lighter Weight • Concrete may be manufactured in thinner portions with GFRC, making it up to 75% lighter than equivalent parts produced with conventional concrete. For example, a concrete countertop made of GFRC can be 1-inch thick instead of 2-inch thick when reinforced with traditional steel. A GFRC-made fake rock will weigh a fraction of what a genuine boulder of equal sizes would, providing for lighter bases and lower transportation costs.

  4. Increased Strength & Reinforcement • GFRC has a rather high strength-to-weight ratio with a flexural strength of up to 4000 PSI. Moreover, GFRS is not easily cracked, making it ideal for construction. • Additionally, GFRC is structurally reinforced, hence, there is no need for external reinforcement, which could be difficult to install in complicated forms.

  5. Durability • Durability is one of the major benefits of using glass fiber reinforced concrete, especially as water cannot enter since there are no cracks — and this is a long-lasting substance. Precast concrete, cast stone, and even some natural stone can not outlive GFRC. The use of low alkaline cement, as well as pozzolans, can be credited for the enhanced durability of this material.

  6. Conclusion • Fibre Reinforced Concrete is growing in popularity in the concrete industry because of its reduction in construction time and labour costs. Aside from economic considerations, quality is critical in construction, and fibre-reinforced concrete meets these standards as well. • So, if you’re looking for high quality glass reinforced concrete, consider contacting JK Cement. This company has made a name for itself for manufacturing high-quality products, including precast concrete and cement-based tile adhesive.
