BlingCrete - Reflecting concrete C-C-BLI
General Description
BlingCrete offers high design potential that derives from the production process. Basically, the building process and use are comparable to known procedural manners of prefabricated elements. Parts of BlingCrete are novel High Performance and Ultra High Performance Concretes that are used: With these the adhesive composition of the glass beads and their position in the matrix can be controlled precisely. They could be positioned in any grid or pattern or in a random distribution on the surface, the color of the matrix could be produced in a greyscale variety from white to anthracite (i. e. black), and colors like yellow, red, green etc. The sizes of the beads range from 0,7 mm to 7 mm, with 2 mm as a standard size. Combinations of sizes are possible.
