Ionic Column in Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete

Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete Ionic Columns

The Ionic order originated in Ionia in mid-6th Century BC. A true Ionic column normally stands on a base that separates the shaft of the column form the platform. One of the most famous examples of Ionic order columns can be seen in the 6th Century Ionic Temple of Artemis at Ephesus. Also known as the Temple of Diana, it is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

The experts at Stromberg Architectural Products have extensive product knowledge and a history of excellence. They pioneered the use of GFRC and today it’s their most popular product. The glass fibers won’t rust like steel, making this product rust proof; there’s also no need for a protective covering of concrete. Because of this, GFRC weighs a fraction of what traditional precast concrete weighs.

How GFRC Can Be Used

• Use glass fiber reinforced concrete wherever you need a light, strong, weather resistant material. Ionic columns made with GFRC are an excellent choice for any setting.

• Stromberg uses molds to cast your GFRC columns, so authenticity to detail is guaranteed. They have a reputation for solving design and construction problems for their clients and can effectively handle your order whether you’re working on a small weekend project or a large development.

• GFRC is an engineered material whose properties can vary depending upon mix design, glass content and production methods. The glass fiber used in GFRC has a higher tensile strength than steel.

GFRC Advantages

• GFRC won’t burn because it’s made of minerals; it also protects the materials behind it from the heat of the flame.

• Light in weight compared to stone and terra cotta, its installation is quick and easy, and your shipping costs are reduced.

• Your GFRC Ionic columns can be cast in an integral color and texture to match their surroundings, or as paint grade that you can finish with any paint.
