Description
Summary:Glass fiber reinforced concrete (GRC) usage in construction industry has been becoming very popular due to its aesthetic, mechanical properties, fast and reliable production in the last decade. However, it has more complex manufacturing processes compared with the other types of concrete pouring systems. Hence, it needs to make higher investments for its more detailed production line. Higher investments carry along more and several types of risk factors, and it becomes necessary to manage them. This paper describes the actual identification of possible risk factors in glass fiber reinforced concrete production sector. And it aims to decrease the unforeseen increase in cost and delays in this branch of concrete production and it is considered to affiliate value for owners, contractors, and the environments in the sector.
