To date, 2,000+ miles of contraction joints have been eliminated with the use of the DUCTILCRETRE® system. It's truly an engineered system for concrete slabs and not just a product we sell.". The DUCTILCRETE® system achieves creep by lowering the differential shrinkage between the top and bottom of the floor slab.
