"Today, when we are constantly hearing about major failures of tunnels, bridges, dams and other vital structures, our goal is to change the conversation from how cheaply someone can build, to how it can be built to last," said Helix Steel CEO, Chris Doran. "We challenge owners, architects, builders, designers and engineers to put more thought into how we build. Adding Helix Steel proactive concrete reinforcement technology to any project provides a longer lifespan and lower life-cycle cost."
