Description:
Carbon acrylic fiber and thermoplastic yarn impregnated with epoxy resin and brought into plate form, used in the reinforcement of historical buildings, domes and reinforced concrete structures, to increase adherence and bearing strength.
Application Areas:
- Indoors and outdoors,
- Strengthening buildings against earthquakes,
- Repair and strengthening of columns, beams and slabs of light – medium damaged structures,
- To increase the bearing capacity in slabs, beams and bridges,
- Reinforcement of structural elements against earthquakes in reinforced concrete structures together with carbon fiber fabric,
- Bridges, overpasses and viaducts with increased live load,
- Reduction of steel reinforcement stresses in deformed and deflected openings,
- Reinforcement of vaults and arches,
- Restoration and repair of historical monuments.
Advantages:
- Very high tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.
- Easy to transport and apply.
- Since it is light and thin, it does not impose a load on the structure and does not form a cross section.
- It can be cut to the desired size with industrial scissors.
- No corrosion problem compared to steel.
- Very high chemical resistance.
- Excellent fatigue strength.
