Installing composite reinforcement on a retaining wall construction site

A retaining wall in Saudi Arabia is another example of GFRP reinforcement in construction practice. The photograph shows reinforcement being installed before concreting.

The collaboration also included a visit to the IKK MateenBar manufacturing plant. Connecting manufacturing and construction helps teams learn about the material and its practical use. Reinforcement selection and structural details always follow the project design.
