Carbon Fiber Grid Reinforced Precast Concrete Panel By using a carbon fiber grid instead of steel rebar as support for its precast panels, AltusGroup is able to manufacture a lighter and thinner panel than those made of traditional precast concrete.
Insulated Wall Panel The product has been used in insulated wall panels and allows for thinner wall sections and better thermal performance, as the carbon fiber grid doesn't conduct heat or cold.
The grid is embedded in liquid concrete like traditional steel rebar. But instead of corroding on contact with the liquid, creating the potential for cracks or breaks, the grid is nonreactive.
