Concrete Countertops: How reinforcing works

Learn from Jeffrey Girard, President of The Concrete Countertop Institute, the principles behind how properly reinforced concrete countertops can enable you to have confidence and avoid problems. Jeff explains how concrete countertops behave like beams, not slabs on grade, where to place the reinforcing and why (including cantilevers) and what materials are most reliable for reinforcing precast concrete countertops. He also touches on how GFRC reinforcing works, as well as gives amazing examples of what a properly reinforced precast concrete countertop can do.
