Failures occur when stresses in walls exceed their resistance limits. The breakdown results in too much wall movement, causing them to crack. The damage weakens a wall's load-carrying capacity. Retrofit brick reinforcement helps to spread loads, constrain movement and reduce the risk of failure.

What are the Signs of Structural Damage to Buildings?

• Cracks in walls.
• Bowing or leaning brickwork.
• Dropped brick arches.

How do I Repair the Building Structure?

The first part of any masonry repair scheme is to identify and rectify the underlying problem. Then, one can strengthen and reinforce the building to restrict further movement.

Our helical bars come in various sizes. Using them for brick reinforcement is easy and cost-effective. Use a series of stainless-steel rods to stitch fractured walls. You can use them in pairs to form deep masonry beams. The beams support brickwork above brick arches and lintels.

Where outer walls bulge or bow, add lateral restraint. Tie the outside walls to the floor structure. Fix the façade to walls running at right angles to it.

Combine ties and reinforcement for numerous structural repair and crack control options. These retrofit products work together to restore structural integrity.
