Fibermesh~R Concrete Solutions by Propex

摘要

From the development of Fibermesh®, the first micro-synthetic fibers, more than 20 years ago, to the introduction of Enduro®, the world's most advanced macro-synthetic fibers, Propex is your single source for synthetic fiber solutions. In Oregon, the 1-5 bridge across the Willamette River between Eugene and Springfield is being rebuilt with the help of Propex Novomesh® 950 macrosyn-thetic fiber blend. Started in 2010 and scheduled for completion In 2013, this is the biggest bridge replacement project that the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) has ever undertaken. The new and improved Novomesh® 950 secondary reinforcement system for concrete features a wider cross-section, hence an increased surface area of the macro fiber, delivering improved adhesion in the concrete mix, increased bond strength, and an overall increase in performance for toughness and crack-holding capability. It also greatly reduces cracks developed by restrained shrinkage.
