Thin concrete walls made by use of Basalt mesh!

David South, President of Monolithic, shows off what we can do with basalt reinforcement and thin concrete construction.

Flower beds made by Monolithic Domes using Basalt mesh and rebars! Concrete savings make up the price difference of steel rebars and the walls last and last!

I need to make a flower bed and these thinner concrete walls are perfect. I do not have a sprayer, is it possible to do without a sprayer?

Thanks

Jennifer

Working with concrete and steel for over 25 years has given me an innate understanding of the properties and use of these materials. From rebuilding old homes in New England to hospitals in Alaska, union work on the pipeline, and commercial jobs from Hawaii to Arizona and Florida, I have seen a great deal!

My motivation when seeing people lose their homes to fires, tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, etc. is the knowledge that by building correctly many of these homes, and lives can be spared. New standards are in place such as installing better windows or hurricane ties. However to me these are just band-aids on the greater problem of building correctly in the first place. Homes can be built today with designs and new reinforcements that can withstand the elements.
