(building strengthening with Horse carbon fiber laminate)

What is Horse Carbon Fiber Laminate strengthening method?

Horse Carbon Laminate is a prefabricated (pultruded), carbon fibre reinforced polymer laminate for structural strengthening of structures made from concrete, masonry, steel or wood. The Horse Carbon Laminate is bonded with epoxy resin (HM-120CP) to the substrate as an external support element. 

Advantages of Horse Carbon Fiber Laminate strengthening method

Horse Carbon Fiber Laminate

• Short construction period

• No maintenance required

• Easy installation, low installation cost

• Light weight, no influence to original structure

• Corrosion resistance, long-term effect of 50 years

• Cost effective compared with other retrofitting method

• 1 layers of CFRP laminate is equivalent to 4-8 layers of CFRP fabric

Horse Carbon Fiber Laminate adhesive

• Double component bidphenol-A modified epoxy resin based adhesive, non-hydrophilic, high bonding strength, water proof, anti-cprrpsion, environmental-friendly;

• Application in wide temperature scope;

• Excellent acid/alkali resistance and aging resistance, low moisture sensitivity.

Horse Carbon Fiber Laminate application

Increasing the load

- Increase of life or traffic loads for slabs, beams

  and bridges

- Change of use of buildings

- Installation of heavier machinery and equipment in

  the industry

- Stabilisation of vibrations and oscillations

Modification of the support system due to

- Distance from columns and walls

- Creating cut-outs in slabs

- Increasing resistance to earthquakes

- Project or building mistakes

Damage to structural parts due to

- Corrosion of steel reinforcement (rebar loss)

- Ageing of building materials

- Damage to the structure due to fire, earthquake,

  impact, etc.

Increase the usability

- Reduction of crack widths

- Reduction of the deflection

- Reduction of steel tensile stresses

- Reduction of fatigue
