The challenge
“As our customer wanted to start operations as soon as possible, speed and ease of installation was an important requirement. However, the biggest challenge of this project was to meet specific load bearing capacities in different floor areas. To achieve 560 kN per point load, we needed a steel fiber with l/d ratio = 80. With Dramix® steel fiber concrete reinforcement, Bekaert was the only supplier able to provide all fibers for this project.”
The solution
“Using Dramix® steel fiber concrete reinforcement enabled us to finish the project smoothly and well within deadline. Bekaert is flexible, easy to work with and offers a tremendous amount of technical expertise. Moreover, their products enable us to offer our end-client the quality we stand for.”
"Fibre System also relied on Bekaert’s support for joint planning, design, logistics and on-site construction support. Using advanced design software, Bekaert helped determining the right thickness, reinforcement and loading capacity of each of the panels."
