Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GRC)

Material

About

Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GRC), also known as Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC), is a composite material that combines the strength of concrete with the flexibility of glass fibers. It is primarily used in architectural applications such as building cladding, wall panels, and decorative elements. GRC is composed of high-strength, alkali-resistant glass fibers embedded in a concrete matrix, which enhances its durability and resistance to environmental stressors like moisture and temperature changes. GRC offers several benefits, including a high strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for lightweight yet robust constructions. It provides excellent design flexibility, allowing it to be molded into various shapes and textures. GRC is also fire-resistant and weather-resistant, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Its ability to withstand environmental conditions without significant degradation makes it a popular choice for architectural features like exterior façade panels and decorative sculptures.
