    Ferrocement is a reinforced concrete building material made of closely spaced steel mesh and rods encased in cement mortar. It has several advantages for structural applications like beams in roofing. Ferrocement is 20% cheaper than conventional materials, can be pre-cast into any shape, is lightweight, durable, and provides better earthquake resistance. C-beams are a type of prefabricated ferrocement structural element that are cost-effective with regular dimensions and shapes that reduce construction time for building roofs and structures.

    Ferrocement:
    Ferro cement is a form of reinforced concrete using closely spaced multiple
    layers of mesh and/or small diameter rods completely infiltrated with, or
    encapsulated in motor

    Properties
    It is a very durable, cheap and versatile material.
    less shrinkage, and low weight.
    high tensile strength and stiffness
    better impact and punching shear resistance
    undergo large deformations before cracking or high deflections

    Advantages

    For structural application as beams in roofing.


    20% savings on materials and cost
    Suitability for pre-casting
    Flexibility in cutting, drilling and jointing
    Very appropriate for developing countries, labor intensive
    Good impermeability
    Fabricated into any desired shape.
    Ease of construction, low weight and long lifetime.
    Better resistance against earthquake.
