REPAIRS / REINFORCEMENT

Structures, over time, as a living organism, are subject to damage, deterioration and new challenges. Weather conditions, ageing of materials, emergencies, such as earthquakes and fires, changes in structural guidelines, as well as potential new requirements (change of use of a property) for reinforcing the static load carrier – or simply a renovation and change of the initial division of the structure accompanied by the need to update the carrying capacity – are addressed technically through various Repair and Reinforcement systems.

 

These systems are applied using a number of different techniques and materials. The ever developing technology provides us with new outlets and solutions, as well as new materials and techniques, so that we can address efficiently and reliably any construction challenge and need of the user.

 

The techniques used for the repair or reinforcement of structures are selected by the designer based on the current state, the potential damage of the structure, the desired final result and the conditions under which the project is carried out (environment, geographical location, season the works are performed, completion time, etc.). In many cases, interventions require a combination of techniques.

Buildtek Co has a long track-record in executing engineering projects of this type, having cooperated with bodies and institutions such as the Greek State, Banks, Regions and Municipalities.

In addition, it has collaborated with the largest construction contractors of Greece on various projects, as well as with the largest engineering consultancy firms, applying a number of different structural repairs and reinforcements while following faithfully the applicable planning studies.

 

Buildtek Co never stops researching, developing and evolving.
It always strives to further enrich the experience and expertise it has gained through major projects, by:
-Upgrading the specialised technical equipment
-Promoting the continuous training and development of the workforce
-Following new technologies in techniques and materials

 

Thus, Buildtek Co is able to undertake responsibly any repair or reinforcement project your space needs with guaranteed results.

GROUT INJECTIONS

GROUT INJECTIONS

They are used for the homogenization of stonework and the filling of cracks in load bearing masonry walls.
RESIN INJECTIONS

RESIN INJECTIONS

Resin injections is a technique used for repairing cracks in reinforced concrete.
GUNITE

GUNITE

Gunite (sprayed concrete – shotcrete) is mainly used to reinforce existing buildings, all the components of a load bearing structure, masonry as well as stonework.
FIBER REINFORCED POLYMERS

FIBER REINFORCED POLYMERS

Composites are placed on the structural elements’ surface and form a kind of permanent external reinforcement.
NEW TECHNOLOGIES

NEW TECHNOLOGIES

Volatile corrosion inhibitors and galvanic anodes for corrosion prevention are modern and innovative products that are applicable in many cases.
BETON PLAQUE

BETON PLAQUE

This method is mainly used for increasing the strength of beams and struts.
NON-DESTRUCTIVE METHODS OF BUILDING REINFORCEMENT

NON-DESTRUCTIVE METHODS OF BUILDING REINFORCEMENT

The strengthening of the load bearing structure of buildings is achieved through 3 new advanced earthquake-resistant methods, directly applicable, cost-effective and compatible with the applicable regulations.
