In structural strengthening, the application itself is the second half of the work. The first half is calculating how much capacity increase is needed in which structural element — and this is an engineering decision. The calculation and the decision belong to the structural strengthening design prepared by a qualified structural engineer.
The service provided here is supervision of the correct execution of that design on site. Even with the right material, if the application detail is wrong, the strengthening will not deliver the expected contribution; errors in the field typically appear not in the design file but in the workmanship.
The structural strengthening design and the technical data sheets of the materials to be used are reviewed. Supervision does not begin without a design prepared by a qualified structural engineer.
Surface preparation, corner rounding radius, the condition of the concrete surface and ambient conditions are checked before wrapping begins.
Lap lengths, epoxy mix ratio, voids beneath the wrap and anchor depth are verified against the design before they are covered.
Non-conformances are reported in writing with photographs. Matters requiring structural assessment are referred to the design engineer; no engineering decisions are made.
When the request form is completed with location and scope, the enquiry arrives with the context needed to give a direct response.
