Ferrocement is a thin layer of cement mortar reinforced with closely spaced layers of wire mesh. It has a higher ratio of steel to cement than conventional concrete. Ferrocement is stronger and more flexible than concrete alone. It can be manufactured through various techniques like hand plastering, semi-mechanized processes, centrifuging, and guniting. Ferrocement has high strength, ductility, impact resistance, and is lightweight and durable. Its applications include water tanks, boat building, manhole covers, pipes, and prefabricated structures.
