Project Spotlight

Tri Pointe Homes Slab

Scope of Work

Two single-family model homes used a combination of synthetic microfibers and macrofibers in their interior slab along with the garage floor. The 4000 psi with 5” slump, slab on grades called for 1 lb/yd3 of FiberForce 150™ and 3 lb/yd3 of FiberForce 750™ in lieu of rebar. The high cost of steel and the shortage of labor has become a factor in the consideration of using synthetic fiber instead of steel rebar.
