Engineering
WesTek Enterprises Ltd can provide engineering assistance for using GFRP rebar in your project.
WesTek Enterprises Ltd is also currently in a development and testing program of a sandwich wall system for single story shop buildings. This building system features a double wythe concrete layer covering a foam core creating a strong structural wall combined with providing a very good insulation value.
Westek has also been trained in Post Tension Concrete Design for larger scale projects.
