THE ANALYSIS OF THE POSSIBILITIES OF USING ASTROFLEX REBAR IN INDUSTRIAL AND TRANSPORT BUILDING
Abstract
Constructive variants of composite armature and variants of manufacturing techniques of the compound composite armature are considered. ASTROFLEX rebar is a composition of an external layer of patented carbon-based nanocomposite material PRECIZER and an internal core of another patented nanocomposite Nanconcrete Light (nanocomposite armature patent claim -"ASTROFLEX", PCT/RU2010/000290). ASTROFLEX rebar offer the following features: corrosion firmness, durability, high adhesion to concrete, a high operational resource, high resistance to the sign-variable loadings, the raised fire resistance and the comprehensible cost price. The basic directions of using ASTROFLEX rebar in hydraulic engineering building and in a bridge building are analyzing.
