Looking to Install Reinforced Concrete in the Houston, TX & Dallas, TX Areas?

Reinforced concrete is a term given to a concrete slab that contains steel reinforcements, such as steel bars, to increase the strength of the overall structure. The material that comes from the combination of concrete and reinforcing bars is called reinforced concrete. During the construction process, the reinforcing steel is placed in first and then fasted together with steel cage or rebars. Then concrete is poured into the framework and vibrated using our high quality devices to make sure the two materials bond together well. Our experienced team is prepared for your next concrete reinforcement project and will walk you through the entire process. 

The staff at Builders Post-Tension has well over 100 combined years of experience in the concrete construction industry. Keeping that in mind, we are dedicated to serving our customers with the best professional care in the area. We are ready to use proper reinforcement techniques to make your concrete sturdy and reliable.  The use of reinforcement leads to effective structural behavior as the reinforcing steel works effectively under tension and concrete works effectively under compression, therefore confining the compression reinforcement. Contact us today to make sure you have a sturdy and reliable platform installed by a trusted construction team! 

The Benefits of Reinforced Concrete

• Strength and Load-Bearing Capacity – One of the main benefits of reinforced concrete is its outstanding durability and load-bearing capacity. The addition of steel reinforcement increases the material's ability to withstand and distribute heavy loads evenly. This makes reinforced concrete suitable for constructions like bridges, high-rise buildings, dams, and foundations that need to carry heavy loads and withstand deformation.

• Durability and Longevity – Reinforced concrete is known for its durability and longevity. The combination of concrete and steel reinforcement results in a material that is extremely resistant to weathering, corrosion, and other environmental effects.

• Crack Resistance and Structural Integrity – Cracking is a common concern in concrete structures, especially under heavy loads or due to temperature fluctuations. However, the use of steel reinforcement in reinforced concrete helps to alleviate this problem. Steel bars or mesh serve as a reinforcement, absorbing tensile forces and preventing cracks from spreading.
