Pre-stressed FRP
S&P application engineers are more than happy to assist with pre-stressing the carbon laminates for you
For special requirements in the strengthening of structures made of steel and reinforced concrete, S&P has developed a special procedure to pre-stress FRP laminates and rods with up to 140 kN. The procedure requires appropriate planning, preparation and execution and is therefore exclusively applied with the support of S&P application experts.
The pre-stressing system has proven itself worldwide and is suitable for a wide range of applications:
- Post-strengthening of overloaded structural elements
- External pre-stressing of structures with corroded internal pre-stressed cables
- Rehabilitation of coupling joints
- Limiting flexure and deflection
- Reduction of crack widths
- Relief of joints
