Carbon fibre for structural consolidation and strengthening

Description

REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAM

									The Problem:  The beam has deficiencies in longitudinal flexural reinforcement caused by a change in load conditions or by a degradation of the initial performances of the materials.   The Solution: Removal of deteriorated concrete and reinforcement bars cleaning Treatment of reinforcement bars with DRACOSTEEL Rebuilding of the section with FLUECO 80 T2 fibre reinforced mortar Application of ARMOPRIMER 100 primer Laying of ARMOFIX MTX epoxy resin ARMOSHIELD C-SHEET unidirectional carbon fabric Impregnation with ARMOFIX MTX epoxy adhesive Protective skim coat mortar or plaster
The Problem: The beam has deficiencies in longitudinal flexural reinforcement caused by a change in load conditions or by a degradation of the initial performances of the materials.         The Solution: Removal of deteriorated concrete and reinforcement bars cleaning Treatment of reinforcement bars Rebuilding of the section with FLUECO fibre reinforced mortar Application of ARMOPRIMER 100 primer Laying of ARMOFIX MTL epoxy adhesive Flexural strengthening with ARMOSHIELD CFK carbon fibre plates Laying of ARMOFIX MTL epoxy adhesive ARMOSHIELD C-SHEET unidirectional carbon fabric Impregnation with ARMOFIX MTX epoxy resin Protective skim coat mortar or plaster
				The Problem: The beam has deficiencies in shear reinforcement (stirrups) caused by a change in load conditions or by a degradation of the initial performances of the materials.   The Solution: Cracking due to a lack of shear reinforcement and degradation Application of ARMOPRIMER 100 primer Laying of ARMOFIX MTL epoxy adhesive Unidirectional carbon fabric for shear strengthening ARMOSHIELD C-SHEET Impregnation with ARMOFIX MTX epoxy resin and sprinkle of quartz sand Protective skim coat mortar or plaster
The Problem: Degradation and deterioration of the beam caused by a change in load conditions or by a degradation of the initial performances of the materials with consequent reduction of the load-bearing capacity, resulting in the shearing off of some pre-stressing strands and in concrete detachment.   The Solution: Removal of deteriorated concrete and reinforcement bars cleaning Treatment of reinforcement bars with DRACOSTEEL Rebuilding of the section with FLUECO fibre reinforced mortar Application of ARMOPRIMER 100 primer Laying of ARMOFIX MTL epoxy adhesive Plate application Plate insertion, anchoring of one head and subsequent plate tensioning Protective skim coat mortar or plaster

REINFORCED CONCRETE PILLAR

		The Problem: The concrete strength of the compressed pillar is below expectations, or there is a need to increase concrete compressive strength in order to improve section ductility. The Solution: Removal of deteriorated concrete and reinforcement bars cleaning Treatment of reinforcement bars with DRACOSTEEL Rebuilding with FLUECO fibre reinforced mortar ARMOFIX MTX epoxy adhesive for bonding Wrapping with ARMOSHIELD C-SHEET unidirectional fabrics ARMOFIX MTX epoxy resin for impregnation Finishing plaster or protective resin
		The Problem: The pillar has deficiencies in longitudinal reinforcement and shear stirrups, and needs to achieve a higher compressive load-bearing capacity. The Solution: Removal of deteriorated concrete and reinforcement bars cleaning Treatment of reinforcement bars with DRACOSTEEL Rebuilding with FLUECO fibre reinforced mortar ARMOFIX MTL laying of the epoxy adhesive Flexural strengthening with ARMOSHIELD CFK plates ARMOFIX MTX resin for bonding Wrapping with ARMOSHIELD C-SHEET unidirectional fabrics ARMOFIX MTX resin for impregnation Finishing plaster

BEAM-PILLAR JUNCTION

The Problem: There is a need to increase the shear strength of the beam and pillar in the point of convergence, in order to restore the proper strength hierarchy between the elements. The Solution: Application of ARMOPRIMER 100 primer ARMOFIX MTX resin for bonding Wrapping with ARMOSHIELD C unidirectional or quadriaxial fabrics Plate bonding with ARMOSHIELD C-QUARDAX quadriaxial fabrics ARMOFIX MTX resin for impregnation Finishing plaster

REINFORCED CONCRETE WALLS

The Problem: To improve the shear behaviour of reinforced concrete walls for seismic reinforcement or retrofitting as per regulation. Решението: Reinforced concrete wall ARMOFIX MTL resin for bonding Reinforcement with ARMOSHIELD CFK plates on both sides ARMOSHIELD C-SHEET carbon fibre fabrics on both sides of the wall ARMOGRIP double aramid thread ARMOFIX MTX resin ARMOFIX MTL resin Finishing plaster
