DESCRIPTION
BET10® Carbon Fiber Mesh is crafted using a unique weaving process and has been subjected to various coating technology treatments. The carbon fiber grid reinforcement system involves a two-step process. Firstly, carbon fiber grids are carefully laid down, and then a premium spray mortar, enriched with active ingredients, is applied to construct the structure. The specialized coating treatment of the carbon fiber mesh ensures a strong binding force and anchoring force between the mesh and the mortar, guaranteeing a reliable and robust structural integrity.
FIELDS OF APPLICATION
Carbon fiber mesh offers a versatile solution for strengthening and retrofitting various structural elements made of concrete, steel, and masonry. These elements may include columns, beams, slabs, walls, pier caps, piles, and more. Its applications encompass several purposes:
•Strengthening to increase load capacity: Carbon fiber mesh can reinforce structural elements, enhancing their load-bearing capabilities.
•Addressing changes in the structural system: It can be used to accommodate modifications such as slab openings, as well as the removal of walls, beams, or columns.
•Retrofitting for seismic, wind, or blast resistance: Carbon fiber mesh provides additional reinforcement to improve a structure’s ability to withstand seismic activity, wind forces, or potential blast impact.
•Restoring strength after fire or vehicle impact: Structural elements damaged by fire or vehicle collisions can be restored to their original strength through carbon fiber mesh reinforcement.
•Restoring deteriorated and corroded members: Carbon fiber mesh can be employed to restore the strength of elements that have suffered from deterioration and corrosion over time.
•Strengthening to address design or construction defects: It is used to rectify weaknesses caused by design or construction deficiencies, improving the overall integrity of the structure.
ADVANTAGES
•Extra high-temperature resistance in non-oxidizing environments
•Good fatigue resistance, abrasion resistance, and corrosion resistance: Carbon fiber is known for its ability to endure repeated stresses, resist wear and tear, and withstand corrosive environments, ensuring long-term durability.
•Carbon fiber offers effective shielding against electromagnetic interference, making it valuable in applications requiring protection from electromagnetic radiation. It also allows X-rays to pass through, making it useful in industries like medical imaging.
•Insoluble and non-swelling in organic solvents, acid, and alkali.
