In order to make up for concrete\u2019s weakness in tension consider adding reinforcement to it. Reinforcement can be a mesh, carbon fibre, steel filaments or rebar. Below is a video (don\u2019t mind the voice) that walks you through some of the different reinforcement options.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-container\" style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zRephX3Zpb8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Have questions on any of the above?
