The cracked Dramix® 5D section in bending is stronger than the uncracked section, this allowed replacement of the structural reinforcing and in some cases enabled a re-design of the pad foundation.

This increased the speed of construction and reduced concrete wastage from overcut foundations that are common with caged foundations to guarantee minimum cover requirements. Replacing this cage resulted in time, labour and material savings and a provided a more durable structure.

The Komatsu Project in Port Hedland adopted Dramix SFRC for all slabs on grade and the complete replacement of conventional reinforcing cages in the huge footings.

Constructed by Copper & Oxley in April 2014, the remote location of Port Headland, 1500km north of Perth, made Dramix fibres the ideal solution to minimise transport and labour of conventional reinforcing.
