The Millennium Bridge, London UK

Slightly expansive, high performance grouts feature non-metallic chemistry so avoiding potential dimension instability, corrosion and staining in the future.

Thurrock Viaduct, Essex UK

Weber duct grout was used on this 1.2 km viaduct where post-tensioned ducts were grouted in lengths of 90 metres. In some areas along the viaduct the grout lengths increased to 135 metres.

The French Embassy, London UK

An existing five-storey building housing the French consulate required protection with a system able to cope with movement within the building fabric. The ideal solution was a highly elastomeric coating to protect and enhance the appearance of the building facade.

 

Structural Strengthening

BridgeFibre reinforced polymer (FRP) technology has been in use for a number of decades in the aerospace and motor industry, where high tensile strength, lightweight fibres and proven durability are standard qualities. These unique composite qualities can be utilized in the field of civil engineering and building for the structural strengthening of concrete, masonry, metallic and timber structures.

Structures deteriorate for a variety of reasons -- from internal reinforcement corrosion, errors in construction, initial poor design and/or construction to excessive loading on older buildings and structures. Rapid, cost effective and simple structural techniques are now available to the specifier through the use of FRP composites. With the high capital costs of demolition and reconstruction, it makes sound economic sense to upgrade structures rather than demolish and rebuild.
