GRC -
A Versatile Building Component
Glass Reinforced
Fiber Concrete or GRC is a lighter and more versatile alternative to concrete products.
The combination
of alkali resistant glass fibers and cement-sand mortar in GRC produces a sturdy
concrete like material and offers flexibility and innovative alternatives in building
design.
It has
many inherent advantages over conventional Precast concrete and is particularly
suited for decorative building components.
GRC does not
contain asbestos, has good chemical and fire resistance and will not decay or corrode.
Combined
with other materials it has excellent insulating properties which makes it ideal
where energy conservation and sound control are required.
As a construction
material, GRC allows relatively thin cross-section products to be used, resulting
in low components and weights.
GRC allows
considerable flexibility and design intricacy in architectural concepts and features.
It can
be utilized in many ways including wall cladding, fascia, screens, panels, cornices,
balustrades, handrails, crowns, copings, columns, bases, sills, corbels, logos,
emblems, urns, decorative architraves, keystones, quoins, column covers, ceilings,
water sprouts, gargoyles, sunscreens, air conditioning duct screens, pipes, gratings,
channels, tree grills and many others.
GRC is ideal
for reconstruction and restoration of external works.
