A slab on grade sits in damp ground for its whole life, and a foundation is hard to get to once the house is built. Reinforcing both with GFRP means the steel inside is never going to rust, swell and crack the concrete.
GFRP bars are light enough to place quickly, and on slabs they make a clean grid with chairs and ties. We help builders with takeoffs, bar lengths and accessories from the engineer’s schedule.

About gfrp for slabs and foundations
Do slabs need special accessories?
Yes. Use supports and ties approved for composite bars, and follow the engineer’s cover requirements.
Can GFRP replace steel in any slab?
Only where the engineer specifies it. Design and detailing follow GFRP-specific guidance.
Do you ask for a deposit just to talk?
No. Talking about a project, a takeoff and a quote are part of how we work. Orders are placed under a written quote you approve.
Are you a lead generation company?
No. We are not a lead generation company, and we do not sell leads. Your request stays with our team.
