Building structures next to the sea and in coastal regions which are exposed to severe corrosion.
All concrete structures and transport routes exposed to frost and thawing salt water
Structures in aggressive chemical media environments
EASY MACHINABILITY
Special Civil engineering, tunnel construction, mining and inner-city infrastructure buildings
NON-CONDUCTIVITY & NO-FREQUENCY DISTURBANCE:
Sensitive functional areas in which electric and thermally non-conductive, induction-free non-magnetic or signal-permeable reinforcements are necessary.
HIGH TENSILE STRENGTH & MINIMUM COMPONENT THICKNESS:
Durostone BFRP rebars with basalt fibre reinforcing are especially suitable for prestressing technology with very high tensile strength.
CARBON FIBER FABRICS
A concrete structure is originally designed and built with optimum effectiveness.
However, with factors such as passing of time, corrosion, fire, collision, earthquakes, vandalism, bowing, cracks, to mention a few, the structure may lose its original properties. Thus, structural strengthening, restoring and rehabilitating or even adding load capacity forms a vital part of today’s civil industry.
Carbon fibre fabric offers improved properties such as non-corrosiveness, high stiffness to weight ratio, high strength to weight ratio, flexibility and ease of application.
The main idea is to glue the textile or laminate using a resin system on the outer surface of the structure i.e. beams and columns to improve strength and rigidity. This can be done by a dry or a wet layup process.
