The Tyfo® Fibrwrap® Advanced Composites System - a bonding composite used for masonry restoration, concrete, wood and steel plate structural strengthening and repair - can be used to increase the strength of existing beams, slabs, walls and columns.
Examples of Tyfo® Fibrwrap® Advanced Composites in Structural Strengthening:
Structures under renovation for a change of use, reinforcements to handle additional loads. This includes adding additional HVAC equipment, computer servers, high-capacity filing systems, heavy machinery, topping slab materials, removal of bays and the creation of new openings and penetrations in a structural element.
Buildings that no longer meet code requirements must be upgraded before they can be occupied.
Buildings transitioning between commercial and residential use typically require structural reinforcement to meet new load demands.
The Tyfo® Fibrwrap® Advanced Composites are used to strengthen structures that no longer have their original design capacity due to construction error, corrosion, improper loading and impact damage.
