Structural Repair
The Need for Structural Repair and Strengthening
The necessity for structural repair and strengthening can stem from various factors, including:
    • Deterioration: Age-related wear and tear, exposure to harsh environmental conditions, and inadequate maintenance can lead to structural deterioration.
    • Improved Functionality:  Optimize your space to suit your specific needs and lifestyle.
    • Increased Property Value: A well-renovated property can significantly boost its market value.
    • Energy Efficiency: Implement energy-saving features to reduce utility costs.
    • Safety and Comfort: Improve the safety and comfort of your building.

Our Approach to Structural Repair and Strengthening

We employ advanced technologies and engineering principles to develop effective strategies for restoring or enhancing the load-carrying capacity of  buildings and other structures. Our comprehensive approach involves:
    • Thorough Investigation: A detailed assessment of the structure’s condition, including visual inspections, non-destructive testing, and load testing.
    • Customized Solutions:  Tailored repair and strengthening techniques based on the specific needs of the structure.
    • Expert Execution: Skilled professionals and state-of-the-art equipment to ensure precise and efficient implementation.
    • Rigorous Quality Control: Stringent quality assurance measures to guarantee the durability and reliability of the repairs.

Key Techniques for Structural Repair and Strengthening

  1. Post-Tensioning:
    • To Purpose: To improve the serviceability and ultimate load-carrying capacity of structures.
    • Methods:  External or internal post-tensioning using steel strands or FRP tendons.

2.Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Composites:

    • Purpose: To enhance the structural strength and durability of concrete and steel structures.
    • Applications: Strengthening beams, columns, slabs, and other structural elements.

Concrete Repair and Rehabilitation

Our concrete repair and rehabilitation services encompass a wide range of techniques, including:
    • Crack Repair: Sealing cracks to prevent water ingress and further deterioration.
    • Repair of Concrete Defects: Addressing issues like honeycombing, delamination, and spalling.
    • Corrosion RepairDefects: Protecting and repairing corroded reinforcement.
    • Fireproofing Repair: Restoring fire resistance to damaged concrete elements.
    • Structural Support and Shoring: Providing temporary support during repair and construction.
    • Protective Coatings and Linings: Applying protective coatings to prevent future damage.
    • Re-anchoring of Prestressing Tendons: Repairing or replacing damaged tendons.
    • Reinforcement Repair: Repairing or replacing corroded or damaged reinforcement.
    • Expansion Joint Replacement: Replacing worn-out expansion joints.
    • Structural Bearing Replacement: Replacing damaged or deteriorated structural bearings.
By leveraging our expertise and advanced technologies, we can extend the lifespan of existing structures, improve their performance, and ensure their safety and reliability.

Structural Repair: Strengthening Your Building’s Foundation

Structural repair is the process of fixing or replacing damaged parts of a building’s structure to ensure its safety and longevity. This can involve addressing issues such as:
    • Foundation Problems: Cracks, settling, or water damage can weaken a building’s foundation, leading to structural instability.
    • Wall Damage: Cracks, water damage, or load-bearing issues can compromise the integrity of walls.
    • Roof Damage: Leaks, water damage, or structural weaknesses can affect the roof’s ability to protect the building.
    • Beam and column issues: Damage to these load-bearing elements can significantly impact the building’s structural integrity.

Why is Structural Repair Important?

    • Safety: Structural repairs can prevent accidents and injuries caused by building collapse or failure.
    • Property value: A structurally sound building is more valuable and attractive to potential buyers or tenants.
    • Longevity: Timely repairs can extend the lifespan of your building.
    • Comfort: A structurally sound building is more comfortable and energy-efficient.

Common Structural Repair Techniques

    • Foundation repair: Techniques like underpinning, piering, and slabjacking can stabilize a weakened foundation.
    • Wall repair: Techniques like patching, repointing, and reinforcing can repair damaged walls.
    • Roof repair: Techniques like replacing damaged shingles, repairing leaks, and reinforcing trusses can restore a roof’s integrity.
    • Beam and column repair: Techniques like carbon fiber reinforcement, steel plate reinforcement, and concrete jacketing can strengthen weakened beams and columns.

When to Consider Structural Repair

If you notice any of the following signs, it’s important to consult with a structural engineer:

    • Visible cracks in walls, floors, or ceilings
    • Uneven floors or sagging ceilings
    • Water damage or leaks
    • Doors or windows that stick or are difficult to open and close
    • Mold or mildew growth
    • Unusual noises or sounds coming from the building

Choosing a Reliable Contractor

When selecting a contractor for structural repair, look for the following:

    • Experience: Choose a contractor with experience in structural repair.
    • Licenses and certifications: : Ensure the contractor is licensed and insured.
    • Reputation: Check reviews and testimonials from past clients.
    • Insurance: Make sure the contractor has adequate insurance coverage.
