Reinforcement
Reinforcement gives concrete increased strength and stability, especially when subjected to tensile forces. Reinforcing steel creates a solid foundation for, for example, houses, walls, and bridges. Quality and precision in reinforcement are crucial for the safety etc.
For an additional cost, we can also provide reinforcement specifications from drawings and prepare a reinforcement schedule. Contact us for more information.
Certification
SBS-Approved Reinforcement
GHS AB offers reinforcement of high quality at competitive prices. We sell several reinforcement products such as reinforcing bars, mesh, spacers, as well as tie steel and edge beam stirrups. If you cannot find what you are looking for in the list, you can check the “complementary products” category, as we also sell oils, tools, and molds, among other items used in casting and reinforcement.
More About Reinforcement
What does the certification mean?
All our reinforcement products are SBS-certified, which means we are an approved supplier of products that meet the Svensk Byggstålkontroll standard. If needed, we can also send a copy of the certification along with the goods.
When is reinforcement used?
Reinforcement primarily provides stability to concrete structures by relieving compression and preventing cracks in the material, as concrete, while durable, is also brittle and prone to cracking without reinforcement. It is therefore essential that anyone casting concrete uses the right type of reinforcement. The type you should use depends entirely on the intended application. If you are building a house foundation or any structure that will expose the concrete to high pressure, it is especially important to ensure that everything is done correctly.
We offer a wide range of products for concrete casting, in different sizes and with various surface treatments. If you have questions about our products or are unsure about what you need for your project, you are always welcome to contact us. We are here for you.
