December 17, 2001 -- Due to growth in business
volume, it has become impractical to keep this list up to date.
The use of GFRP Bars in MRI Hospital Room additions is becoming
commonplace. Other applications such as waterfront construction,
top mat reinforcing for bridge decks, various precast applications
and ornamental and architectural concrete and soft-eye opening
for large TBM projects are also becoming commonplace.
Amoung our most prestigious projects are:
- Significant volumes incorporated in the Gonda Building at the
Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN
- National Inst of Health, Bethesda, MD
- Rehabilitation of Dry Dock #4, Pearl Harbor Hawaii
- Bridge Deck, Top Mat Reinforcing: Sierriata dela Cruz Creek
in Texas, 53rd Ave Bettendorf
- Tunnel Works, Bangkok, Hong Kong, London River Thames, New Delhi
transit systems
Thus the following information is dated.
