Re: Slab on grade

In my area the WWR is always pulled into place during pouring, so the
location is not so reliable. But it is used way more often than
rebar.

Does anyone have a relative cost comparison between using installed
rebar vs WWR that would provide the same steel area? Say #3 at 18" vs
WWR?
