STRUCTURAL STRENGTHENING
Al Qahraba provides cutting-edge restoration, repair, and improvement solutions for existing structures such as columns, beams, and slabs. Our cutting-edge technologies aim to improve the strength, durability, and safety of concrete, steel, and load-bearing structures through novel approaches.
CFRP Structural Strengthening Solutions:
We use CFRP plates and rods to improve flexural strength in dynamic and static constructions. CFRP solutions are well-known for their lightweight, high-strength qualities, making them suitable for a variety of structural applications.
Carbon/Glass Fiber Fabrics and Epoxy Resin Strengthening Solutions:
Additionally, we employ our technique to strengthen irregularly shaped substrates and structures by combining glass fiber and carbon fiber textiles with epoxy resins. In situations where traditional approaches might not be as successful, our approach offers adaptable and efficient strengthening options.
Applications of Our Strengthening Solutions Include:
- Flexural Strengthening: To provide better load-bearing capability, weak concrete components or structures should have their bending strength increased.
- Beam Reinforcement: Beams can be strengthened to improve their structural integrity and handle heavier loads.
- Shear Strengthening: Strengthening a structure’s shear resistance to stave off failure from lateral stresses.
- Crack Prevention: Using strengthening agents to lessen and stop fractures from forming and spreading.
- Increased Impact Resistance: Improving a structure’s resistance to impact and unintentional damage.
- Strengthening of Weak Substrates:Enhancing the load-bearing capability of masonry, walls, and roofs by adding reinforcement.
- Enhanced Load-Carrying Capacity: Enhancing the structural components’ ability to handle larger loads safely by increasing their load-bearing capacity when they are compressed.
