Frequently Asked Questions
What is ForeverBar?
They are Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) which is a composite material of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers. FRP stands for Fiber Reinforced Polymer which includes aramid (AFRP), basalt (BFRP), carbon (CFRP), and Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP).
What are the Advanatages of ForeverBars?
GFRP rebar ForeverBars® has a high tensile strength which means they are at least 2x stronger than traditional steel of the same diameter. This allows you, in some cases, to replace the diameter of steel with one size smaller diameter of ForeverBars® without any loss of performance. Since ForeverBars® is anti- corrosive and has a life of over 2x that compared with TMT reinforcement bars, this makes it easy to choose. While deciding between GFRP rebar and steel rebars, the durability of ForeverBars® will take over the other. As the density of glass fiber reinforcement is only about 1900 kg/cubic meter, it makes ForeverBars® about 4x lighter than the conventional reinforcement bars making it easy to handle, transport, and faster construction process.
Economic Benefits of using Forever Bars?
1. Direct Cost Saving Reduced maintenance and repair costs.
2. Long-Term Durability Extended lifespan in corrosive environments. Minimized repair and replacement.
3. Lower Transportation Costs Reduced weight cuts fuel.
4. Lightweight Material Handling Lower labor installation expenses.
5. Reduced Concrete Coverage Less concrete, same strength.
6. Improved Structural Performance Higher tensile strength, reduced material usage.
7. Corrosion Resistance Benefits No rust-related deterioration or repairs.
8. Faster Project Completion Easier handling, faster installation. Simplified handling speeds up construction timelines. Time savings equals money.
9. Reduced Environmental Impact Less material waste and longer asset life.
How to replace TMT Rebar?
GFRP is twice as strong yet more flexible than steel rebar, behaving in a linear elastic manner until failure, which means it doesn’t have a defined yield point. Despite this, GFRP can withstand significantly higher loads. Engineers should adhere to specific Codes and Standards for GFRP rebar rather than those for steel. Following are the diameter equivalents in mm
