Durability
When the working load is applied, the plates absorb the tensile forces proportionally with the steel reinforcement. An unused load-bearing reserve
must be available in the concrete compression zone of the existing structure.
The adhesive layer must be capable of levelling out any stress peaks.The
better the levelling, the greater is the proportion of load-transmitting adhesive
surface.

The efficient Sika roll-on process enables the CarboDur plates to be applied
in a very short time. This can save considerable working time and also gives
greater flexibility in construction planning for strengthening work.

Reinforcement
Strain Relief
The reinforcement can have
improved strain relief and the crack
widths can be reduced by using
high-module plates.
Deflection
If strengthening is necessary due to
high deflection, for example on
timber beams, the Sika CarboDur H
plate is used.

Quick to Use
With the flexible Sika CarboDur plates, strengthening work can be carried out
without dismantling existing services. This reduces the construction period and
also saves money.
