Add earthquake strength without bulk
CFRP wrapping strengthens weakened columns and beams with minimal thickness — preferred in occupied Guwahati flats where space and aesthetics matter.
CFRP is engineering fabric — not cosmetic wrap
Carbon fibre sheets are epoxy-bonded after surface prep and designed for required capacity increase. Wrong application fails in first tremor.
Services
Column CFRP wrapping
Full or partial wrap increases confinement and shear capacity.
When: Under-strength or cracked columns in retrofit projects
Risk: Weak columns are first to fail in progressive collapse.
Beam flexural strengthening
CFRP strips on beam soffit increase bending capacity.
When: Beams with insufficient steel or load additions
Risk: Beam failure drops slabs — high casualty risk.
CFRP vs steel jacketing
CFRP is thinner and faster in occupied buildings. Steel jacketing suits heavy industrial loads. We specify based on NDT and structural calc.
Weak column identified in NDT? CFRP may avoid costly demolition.
