Recently, a South American country embarked on a large-scale project to strengthen shelters & schools for Hurricanes. The walls of many of the buildings were found to be deficient in flexure. The Fiberbond system can also be used as a spall liner in hurricane prone regions to prevent projectiles from coming through the walls.
The Carbon Fabric is carefully cut into the desired lengths and widths in a clean environment.
After removing the plaster & grinding the surface, the primer is applied & allowed to soak into the CMU’s.
A thickened Epoxy paste is applied to fill any holes & ensure a smooth surface.
Accurate record keeping ensures quality control over the entire installation process.
The FRP strips are allowed to cure before patching with plaster.
