Here in Aruba the weather shifts very suddenly from summer to winter, due to the arrival of the rainy season. The shift, while abrupt, is certainly not dramatic, as there is very little variation in temperature throughout the whole year. The only thing you need to look out for extra rainfall.
Answer by Austin Bowe. Confidence votes 8. Cost vary according to the size and complexity of the job. DETAILING. A high of $30+ per ton USD for smaller jobs (100 tons+/-) with smaller rebar (#3,#4,#5), and a low of $15 per ton for larger jobs (1000+ tons) with larger bars (#11). ESTIMATING. From $5 to as low as $1 per ton again depending on the size and complexity of the project.
The largest price variance between GFRP and black steel occurs when you compare the lowest grade black steel to rebar GFRP rebar. Depending on volume, a #3 10 mm plain black steel Grade 40 rebar can be 1/3 the cost of a #3 10mm fiberglass rebar. As the diameter of the bars increase this gap narrows to a point where a #8 22 mm plain black steel bar is only slightly less expensive than #8 22 mm fiberglass rebar. In some applications less concrete cover and reduced water proofing costs result in lower initial project cost.
