Concrete Overlay




FORTA-FERRO® was recently specified in 2013 by Desmone Associates & Architects in The Doughboy Apartment Complex and Retail Shops building project.  The building plan consisted of 42 apartments and 2 retail stores.  FORTA-FERRO® was used as an overlay for the precast beams that were used at the top of the parking garage to reduce cracking.  FORTA-FERRO® was pumped from a concrete truck.  The 3” slab was finished with a steel trowel.  FORTA-FERRO® replaced 6x6-10 gauge steel reinforcement.
