2.0mm Thick Carbon Fiber Laminate for Structural Strengthening

Product Description

Product Description:
Carbon fiber laminates are pultruded carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates, designed for strengthening concrete, timber, masonry, steel andfibre reinforced polymer structures.
Carbon fiber laminates are bonded onto the structureas externally , bonded reinforcement using epoxy resin based adhesive for room temperatures curing.

Applications :
1.Increased Load Carrying Capacity:
Increasing the load capacity of floor slabs, beams and bridge sections
▪ For the installation of heavier machinery
▪ To stabilise vibrating structures
▪ For changes in building use
2.Damage to structural elements due to:
▪ Deterioration of the original construction materials
▪ Steel reinforcement corrosion
▪ Accidents (Vehicle impact, earthquakes, fire)
3.Improvement of serviceability and durability:
▪ Reduced deflection and crack width
▪ Stress reduction in the steel reinforcement
▪ Improved fatigue resistance
4.Change of the structural system:
▪ Removal of walls and / or columns
▪ Removal of floor and wall sections to create access /openings
5.Resistance to possible events:
▪Increased resistance to earthquakes, impact or explosion etc.
6.To repair design or construction defects such as:
▪ Insufficient / inadequate reinforcement
▪ Insufficient / inadequate structural depth

Advantages and Benefits:
▪ Non-corroding
▪ Very high strength
▪ Excellent durability and fatigue resistance
▪ Unlimited lengths, no joints required
▪Low system thickness, simple execution of plate intersections or crossings
▪ Easy transportation (rolls)
▪Lightweight, very easy to install, especially overhead(without temporary support)
▪Minimum preparation of plate, applicable in severallayers
▪Smooth edges without exposed fibres as result of production by pultrusion
