Throughout the lifetime of a structure, changes in use, increases in loads or changes in construction norms may make reinforcement necessary. With composite materials, Sika offers effective solutions that have been developed for uses in the field of structural reinforcement. Whether it is for the improvement of resistance to bending, shear force or compression, in reinforced or pre-stressed concrete, Sika has the appropriate solutions.

Strengthening Structures Meet Different Objectives

                                                

                                                

                                                

 
  • Restore the structure to its initial capacities (insufficient reinforcement, degradation, corrosion, etc.)
     
  • Bring back into compliance or follow the evolution of standards
     
  • Give the structure a new state of service by increasing its bearing capacity or by modifying its structure (opening of the hopper, etc.).
