Hybrid Systems
Hybrid carbon and steel systems
Optimized combinations of carbon and steel reinforcement for complex structural requirements.
Hybrid Systems
Not every application demands full carbon reinforcement. Hybrid systems strategically combine carbon mesh in corrosion-exposed zones (top layers, edge zones) with conventional steel in areas where ductility is critical (bottom reinforcement in beams). This approach captures the durability benefits of carbon where they matter most, while managing costs through selective use.
- Carbon in corrosion-exposed zones
- Steel for ductility-critical areas
- Cost-optimized reinforcement layout
Steel vs Carbon
Hybrid approach reduces total reinforcement cost by 15–25% vs full carbon
Case Example
Industrial floor slab, Frankfurt — carbon mesh top layer, steel bottom reinforcement
