The construction of the hull of a ferrocement boat is a solid, flexible and durable construction.
Ferrocement is a technical term, which should not be confused with reinforced concrete. It can be defined as a composite material consisting of a set made of a hydraulic cement mortar and a reinforcement of continuous layers of steel mesh distributed throughout the mass. The basic parameters that characterize ferrocement are the clean surface of the reinforcement and its distribution, the surface of cover of the reinforcement by the mortar and the relative high quality of the mortar.
