Carboniar® System
Carboniar® is a bending, shearing and confinement structural reinforcement system based on carbon fiber sheets/lamellas and epoxy compounds formulated to reach the designed required structural functions.
Carboniar® can be applied on historical brick, stone or wooden structures and as well on reinforced concrete structures.
Carboniar® allows the rehabilitation of damaged structures or the prevention of seismic damages;
TYPICAL APPLICATION OF Carboniar®
Historical buildings: on arches, vaults, walls, domes, columns, architraves, wooden beams and floors.
Civil buildings: on reinforced concrete beams, slabs and columns.
AMONG THE MAIN ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY Carboniar® WE LIST:
·Extremely reduced weight of the reinforcement (typically 1% of the structure's own weight)
·1 mm finished thickness
·Easy fitting to all surfaces, thanks to easy draping of carbon fiber sheets
·Excellent resistance in humid environments
·Long lasting components, resistant to chemicals and to corrosion
·Reversibility and compatibility of the treatment
·Accurate quality control
CARBON FIBER SHEETS USED IN THE Carboniar® SYSTEM MEET THE FOLLOWING SPECIFICATIONS:
·Tensile Strength: 4.900 Mpa
·Elastic Modulus: 230.000 Mpa
·Breaking elongation: 2.1%
·Density: 1.8 g /cm³
