@julianbransky7168 perhaps a simple question, but we would not be doing any favors to answer the question simply. GFRC as a concept is simple; 1:1 sand:cementitious, low water:cement ratio (how low is situation dependent, superplasticizer and pozzolan, dosed at specific percentages of the cementitious weight, situation dependent. And glass fibers, dosed as a percentage of the entire mix, including the fibers. We offer a lot of resources, because this is not a simple craft, despite appearing so. We are committed to the success of the people that we help, and we prefer to be informative if sometimes not concise. Thank you for your feedback!
