Yard, rebar is used extensively in high rise construction made of concrete as opposed to steel. It is used a lot in multi story parking decks which are constructed mainly from concrete.

The problem on the bulloney board is that a few of the nitwits think that PLNI makes rebar from plastic. There is some rebar in the development stage that is made from fiber but currently 99.99% of the rebar used is steel. The only things PLNI makes for concrete construction are the rebar supports which keep rebar in place when concrete is poured.

Yardslave, PLNI makes plastic chairs or supports which keeps rebar off the bottom when the concrete is poured and placed. Once the concrete has set, the real purpose of the chair has been served. The rebar will not go anywhere as it is part of the flatwork as an example.

All any investor has to do is follow a ready mix truck to a job site and they will be able to observe what I have stated. It does not do any good for rebar or mesh to rest on the ground as it will not be able to hold the concrete together as well as if it is 1/3rd up off the ground. That is what the chair is for...and once the concrete has set, the rebar will remain in place. Structural damage will not be saved by a plastic chair, that very idea is absurd.

I have posted before that our company is in the concrete business and we do not use plastic chairs. There is no advantage, the naive investors in PLNI do not understand that PLNI does not have a revolutionary product, as they believe. I told then this 6 months ago and they do not want to believe the truth. That is their problem, but it certainly is not the way to invest, nor are they going to hit the home run that they are either hoping for...
