"We laid it (the GatorBar) out the same as we would steel and then tied it in place once laid out. Tie wire guns worked perfectly. Usually the guys can't keep up to the crew grading, but with this they were standing around waiting for them. I’d say time savings amounted to 4 hours. Our crew really liked the fact that you can carry a large amount with ease.”
GatorBar leads to:
With GatorBar, you can look forward to less down-time, more productive up-time, and reduced workers comp. GatorBar #3 Composite Rebar is seven times lighter than #4 steel rebar, which makes for an easier install. Your crew can carry more rebar from truck to jobsite, resulting in faster installation time.
Our lightweight design allows workers to carry 25-piece bundles and still stay below the 50 pound weight restriction. Employees installing GatorBar #3 are happier and more productive, which in turn leads to better end-customer impression on the project.
“My guys have been working with steel for more than fifteen years and the acceptance of GatorBar started within minutes. They were already seeing forty percent labor savings on the first day. By the end of the week, they didn’t want to see steel on our flat work jobs again," says Rob Swanson, ICS Inc.
