Bharat Composites CarboLam is (CFRP) laminates, and is a 0° unidirectional pultruded carbon fiber sheet with high tensile strength and high tensile modulus. This system may improve structural load carrying capacity and is design for strengthening concrete, timber, masonry, steel, and fiber-reinforced polymer structures.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
• High strength to weight ratio-provides additional strength without adding to the 'deadload' of a structure
• Small profile - does not reduce overhead clearance in buildings or parking structures cost effective design
• Lightweight-easily applied using hand application techniques
• Fast curing adhesive -quick installation avoiding costly downtime of structures or buildings
CHARACTERISTICS/ ADVANTAGES
• Non-corroding with high life expectancy
• Improves flexural strength capacity
• Excellent durability and fatigue resistance
• Unlimited lengths, no joints required
• Lightweight system reduces requirement for heavy supporting equipment and adds negligible additional load
• Pultrusion process increases density making strengthening narrow sections possible
• Thixotropic resin adhesive makes overhead working easier
• Low system thickness, simple execution of plate intersections or crossings
• Lightweight system reduces requirement for heavy supporting equipment and adds negligible additional load
USES
• Increasing the load capacity of floor slabs, beams and bridge sections for the installation of heavier machinery / to stabilize vibrating structures.
• Damage to structural elements due to Steel reinforcement corrosion / Accidents (Vehicle impact, earthquakes, fire)
• Improvement of serviceability and durability Reduced deflection and crack width/ Stress reduction in the steel reinforcement
