Bridge strengthening with Horse composite strengthening systems

Bridge strengthening with Horse Construction composite strengthening systems. Flexural Strengthening with HM CFRP plates, HM prestressed CFRP plates and HM carbon fiber fabrics. Shear Strengthening with HM CFRP plates and HM carbon fiber fabrics. Seismic Retrofitting with HM carbon fiber fabrics.

Bridge strengthening with Horse Construction composite strengthening systems

System of reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete, timber and masonry arch bridges

Reasons for bridge structural reinforcement

▲ Rebar corrosion

▲ Corrosion of prestressed cable

▲ Increase traffic load

▲ Insufficient design

▲ Modified standards / specifications

▲ Excessive cracking of concrete

▲ Seismic transformation

Composite materials needed for structural reinforcement

FRP fabric:

Unidirectional and bidirectional fiber fabric with carbon fiber, glass fiber and aramid fiber. Mainly used for seismic reinforcement and shear reinforcement.

CFRP plate:

Carbon Fibre Plates produced by pultrusion process with precize material properties. Mostly used for flexural and shear strengthening of dynamic loaded structures such as bridges, etc.
