After the Wenchuan earthquake, buildings in Sichuan are undergoing earthquake upgrades to prevent potential earthquake damage and injury.

Many buildings, especially concrete buildings, do not need to be upgraded, but in some cases, the building owner has completed the upgrade anyway to be more secure.

Horse Construction's carbon fiber reinforcement system was selected for upgrade due to its powerful features.

Carbon fiber was installed on multiple concrete walls of the building, which successfully improved the shear and bending resistance of the wall.

The entire earthquake upgrade was successfully completed within 7 days. Compared to steel structure upgrades, the building is not only earthquake resistant, but carbon fiber upgrades save a lot of money, time and environmental costs.

In addition, because carbon fibers are relatively light, upgrading their buildings with ultra-light fabrics hardly adds weight to the structure. If customers choose a steel upgrade, it will add dangerous weight to already heavy concrete buildings.
