In the heart of Colorado Concrete Solutions lies a commitment to innovation, a cornerstone of our practices to deliver top-notch installations to our neighbors and friends in the Denver, CO, area. Our dedicated paving contractors employ cutting-edge materials like fiberglass rebar in our concrete paving projects, particularly those demanding heightened stability and strength, such as slabs, parking lots, and foundations.
While traditional rebar has been integral for over a century, contemporary designs are reshaping our perception of standard steel reinforcement. This blog focuses specifically on the transformative features of the 4EQ Structural Bar (ESR-4664).
What’s a Structural Fiberglass Rebar?
Introducing the groundbreaking 4EQ Structural Bar – a revolutionary structural fiberglass rebar designed to elevate the durability of foundations and flatwork. Produced by MST BAR, this high-mod composite rebar redefines conventional reinforcement methods. Specifically engineered to preserve its superior strength across generations, the 4EQ Structural Bar is the rust-proof alternative to traditional steel rebar in sizes #4, #5, and #6 for structural applications.
Crafted with precision, this composite rebar is manufactured using boron-free ECR Glass Fibers and Vinyl Ester Resin. These cutting-edge materials contribute to the exponential enhancement of strength and longevity in reinforced concrete. In simpler terms, the 4EQ Structural Bar ensures your construction projects stand the test of time, with the added advantage of being corrosion-resistant, providing a lasting and robust solution for diverse structural applications.
Benefits of Structural Fiberglass Rebar
The 4EQ Structural Fiberglass Reinforcement Bar offers distinct advantages across various concrete construction applications.
- 2-4 times stronger and 100% rust free
- 75% lighter, making it easier to transport
- Save time with labor with faster placement
- Installs like steel, tie, and set
- Performs better, longer-lasting than other rebar
- Lower installation cost, stable material pricing
Using this innovative rebar can lower the weight of the structure, allowing for more innovative designs. It doesn’t rust, so the worry of using additives or developing cracks is gone. Corrosion is also not an issue, improving the longevity of concrete slabs, columns, steps, and walls. The manpower for contractors is also significantly reduced, lowering installation costs.

Internationally Recognized Quality
4EQ Structural Bar is the first composite rebar to meet the acceptance criteria AC454 from the International Code Council’s Evaluation Service. The International Code Council (ICC) is a non-profit organization that develops and publishes building codes, standards, and guidelines to ensure the safety and performance of buildings and structures. Their Evaluation Service evaluates products and systems to determine compliance with these codes and standards, providing a recognized mark of approval within the construction industry.
This means that fiberglass rebar is compatible with most local residential and commercial building codes nationwide. Colorado Concrete Solutions is proud to offer it to our valued clients in Aurora, Lakewood, Thornton, Arvada, Westminster, Centennial, Boulder, Broomfield, Englewood, Littleton, Wheat Ridge, Longmont, Greeley, Fort Collins, and the Denver Metro Area!
Whether it’s enhancing a residential driveway’s structural integrity or fortifying an industrial facility’s foundation, this innovative composite rebar proves to be a game-changer in construction materials. We’re so proud to be able to introduce it to concrete paving projects all over Colorado!
