Terrazzo and GFRC samples: what a design study can and cannot show
A terrazzo or glass-fibre-reinforced concrete (GFRC) sample can help a designer explore colour, aggregate, texture and surface finish. Label the sample with its purpose, source and process information. Photograph it under consistent lighting and write down the visual qualities you observed.
Do not use a decorative sample to claim structural capacity, fire performance, durability or compliance. Those properties require suitable testing, controlled production and qualified review for the intended application. If a workshop uses cement, resins, cutting or other hazardous processes, follow approved facilities, material information and supervision.
