Due to the functions of industrial floors such as manufacturing, storage & distribution: Industrial floors are subjected to heavy, substantial loads. Gradual, high - intensity loading of these floors induces crack propagation and more crucially, crack growth.
Conventionally, Steel rebar/ WWM or Steel fiber reinforcements have been utilized for concrete reinforcement in order to counter this aforementioned Crack propagation and growth.
i3P's concrete fibers provide a high performing alternative to these conventional concrete reinforcement materials.
ENGINEERING ENHANCEMENTS
Reduced Concrete Crack propagation and growth
Crack propagation due to heavy, static, long-duration exposure loads (creep loads) such as manufacturing machinery, heavy pallets, and containers, racking loads is massively reduced.
Increased Flexural performance - EVEN AT CORNERS & EDGES!
A high number of fibers per cubic meter of concrete and uniform fiber dispersion ensures 3-Dimensional performance in concrete.
The implementation of continuous, Jointless floors is feasible – Construction costs for cutting in joints and setup of dowels is eliminated. Furthermore, maintenance & repair costs are reduced due to the lower number of edges in a continuous floor.
High Impact and Fatigue resistance
Repetitive loading from heavy forklift trucks and other moving machinery or repetitive movement of vehicles in parking lots propagate stresses into concrete floors, leading to deterioration.
