They say 'Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery' but blatantly saying a counterfeit fiber is Dramix™ and using the Dramix™ product name is a step too far. We need the industry to step up and prevent the use of fake inferior products. If anyone other than Bosfa offers you a 3D, 4D, or 5D fibre, please let us know so we can take action. To verify the authenticity of any steel fibre products you purchase, please ensure the following: 👍 The CE reference number and product name are clearly displayed on the product packaging and datasheets. 👍 The CE documentation matches the product packaging, including the product name and CE reference number. 👍 Only purchase from authorized Bosfa representatives to guarantee the genuine quality of our products.

What an amazing project to be involved in! Bosfa provided a #Dramix #Seamless #CombiSlab solution for the basement slabs. Thanks again to MSC Consulting - Structural & Civil Engineers for getting us involved in this impressive project. Bosfa provides #valueengineering for foundations, rafts, slabs and other concrete elements using the unique properties of #Dramix steel fibre reinforced concrete.

⏪ Maximising Tensile Strength with Hooked-End Steel Fibres in SFRC ⏩ Research has demonstrated that hooked-end fibres provide superior anchorage, ensuring optimal stress transfer in SFRC. This is particularly crucial for high-tensile steel fibres to fully leverage their increased tensile strength. High-tensile fibres (+2000 MPa) are well-suited for high-strength concrete (+70 MPa), as the wire's tensile strength is sufficient to prevent fibres snapping (Brittle failure). However, increasing the tensile strength of fibres in medium-strength concrete (40 MPa) does not substantially enhance SFRC performance, as fibres will merely deform and pull through (Ductile failure). To effectively utilize high-tensile wires in medium-strength concrete, it is imperative to reinforce anchorage by modifying the hook's shape. Key benefits of #Dramix 4D hooked-end fibres: 🗝 Enhanced Anchorage: Prevent fibres from slipping or pulling out, maximising tensile strength utilisation. 🗝 Improved Ductility: Enhance the material's ability to deform before ductile failure. 🗝 Crack Bridging: Effectively bridge cracks to maintain structural integrity. Additional considerations: 💡 Fibre Length, Diameter and Volume: Longer fibres and higher volumes (length of reinforcement) increase fibre overlap and anchorage. By incorporating #Dramix 4D hooked-end fibres into your SFRC projects, you can unlock their full potential and deliver durable, high-performance structures. #SFRC #SteelFibres #HookedEndFibres #Construction #MaterialsScience #Dramix

Yet another example of Dramix® steel fibres enhancing concrete reinforcement by improving structural integrity and watertightness. Saving costs, accelerating manufacturing and installation processes, and improving sustainability in precast plants.

With the historic issues we've had in both Australia and New Zealand construction industry, you'd think that this would be a simple question.

Congrats on 8 years Nathan. It was great celebrating it with our Bekaert Indonesian colleagues.
