Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) - Tri-Con

At Tri-Con, we have decades of experience, giving us a deep understanding of the complexities of various concrete mixtures and their advantages. With Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC), traditional concrete&#;s strength is combined with steel fibers&#; durability. These powerful fibers enhance mechanical properties, ensuring performance under diverse conditions and extreme weather. SFRC provides the power to withstand heavy loads and dynamic forces. These high-quality steel fibres also control cracks, prolong the structure&#;s life, and reduce maintenance costs.

SFRC is optimal for industrial floors, precast elements, pavements, high-rise projects, and more.

SikaFiber® Novocon® XR | Steel Fibers

SikaFiber® Novocon® XR can be ribbon feed directly to the concrete mixing system after the batching of the ingredients and mixed for 4 to 5 minutes or 70 revolutions.  The addition of SikaFiber® Novocon® XR at the recommended dosage rates may decrease the slump; however, additional water should not be added. Only a water reducing or high range water reducing admixture should be used to adjust concrete to the desired workability.

Application

The addition of SikaFiber® Novocon® XR at the normal recommended dosage rate does not require any mix design or application changes. The fiber concrete can be mixed, sprayed or placed using conventional equipment.

Tooling & Finishing

SikaFiber® Novocon® XR can be used in power/hand troweled concrete, colored and broom finished concrete.  Fiber reinforced concrete can be finished by most finishing techniques as indicated in ACI-302.  Proper timing and workmanship are importante when using a steel fiber to insure the fiber is not elevated at the surface.
