To meet the demand of housing at Ohio University, the University in May of 2013 started construction of 4 new suite style residence halls consisting of 900 beds. FORTA-FERRO® synthetic macro fibers were chosen as the secondary reinforcement for both the slab-on-grade and slab-on-decks. Another 4 residence halls are planned for next spring and completion of the project in August of 2015. FORTA-FERRO® has proven time and again to be the synthetic macro fiber reinforcer of choice by leading contractors who want the best mixing, finishing and performing synthetic macro fiber on the market.
