Slab foundation reinforced with fibres

Slab foundation reinforced with constructive synthetic fibres. The slab foundation was reinforced with 4 kg of Concrix^® ES per cubic metre of concrete and, in one section of the foundation slab, a steel reinforcement cage of only 3 metres in order to be able to withstand point loads.

By choosing constructive synthetic fibres instead of full steel, this slab foundation could be realised faster, cheaper and more sustainably. In addition, the environmental costs and CO₂ emissions were reduced. This project was realised by Betontechniek Noord B.V. in collaboration with Olthof Groep B.V.
