Anchors for injection for Reinforcement of historical buildings - GBOS

Bossong

Anchors for injection for Reinforcement of historical buildings - GBOS
Over the last recent years a greater and greater attention to the existing building heritage and to the activities aimed to the preservation of both buildings with high architectural value and those belonging to the category of traditional buildings has been developed. Especially in reinforcement works, the Bossong company has carried out research on techniques and materials aimed at reinforcing masonry structures, proposing controlled injection anchors with sock for the consolidation of historic buildings, called GBOS. CHARACTERISTICS The system is composed by a strong element , a high strength stainless steel bar -AISI 304 or AISI 316- (ft nom 750 N/mm2 - fy nom 650 N/mm2 ), with full thread along the entire length. It is provided of a sock with the function of controlling the coaxially carried injection of the grout. These two elements, together with the grout, are fundamental to make integral the reinforcing element to the masonry. Besides allowing good injection operations, avoiding unexpected and often damaging spread of grout in voids and cavity that can be present in the existing walls, the sock guarantees the adherence of the injected material to the substrate throughout its entire length and a homogeneous distribution of stress thanks to both the adherence of injected material and the mechanical interlock that the injected grout develops with masonry. The line of anchors for controlled injection is complete with a range of accessories in AISI 316 stainless steel, couplers, turnbuckles, nuts, to fulfil the different needs of each project; Bossong can provide un-tensioned steel reinforcements, pre-stressed tendons, vertical anchors and anchors with every degree of tilt.

Laterlite

Systems of structural reinforcement | Ruregold
Ruregold of Laterlite is a leading company in the field of structural reinforcement and has a deep knowledge of the market of construction reconstruction and infrastructure maintenance, thanks to the significant know-how gained in almost 20 years of experience. Ruregold concentrates its energies in the evolution of new systems for the reinforcement of concrete and masonry structures with composites of excellence, in particular the FRCM range with PBO and carbon mesh and inorganic matrix that, first in the world, has obtained the international validation certification. Features The structural reinforcement systems FRCM (Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Matrix) consist of the coupling of a long fiber at high performance and inorganic matrix cementitious stabilized used with the function of adhesive: a step ahead of traditional FRP systems with composite matrix epoxy resins. Two different types of structural fibres, carbon and PBO (polyparafenilenbenzobisoxazole) are used in Ruregold’s FRCM reinforcement systems, both materialists with mechanical properties and performance that can absorb the efforts generated by overloads and exceptional events, such as earthquakes. The range also includes FRP reinforcement systems with carbon fibre pultruse fabrics and sheets and epoxy matrix consisting of the joining of a long high performance mechanical fibre and a matrix acting as an adhesive between the fibres and the support allowing the transfer of stresses from the structure to the fibre. The intervention of plating of the masonry, by means of the technique of the reinforced plaster - CRM system - allows the increase of the carrying and seismic capacityresistant to walls thanks to the use of fibreglass nets and specific mortars for the restoration and consolidation of masonry structures that allow to intervene especially in the case of walls are severely damaged or inconsistent, provided that the necessary transverse connections are in place and are well anchored to the reinforcements on both sides of the masonry. The range is completed with products and solutions for the restoration and preparation of the concrete and masonry support for subsequent structural reinforcement interventions, Fiber-reinforced HPFRC micro-extruders reinforced with steel and synthetic fibres for structural reinforcement of pillars, beams, beam-pillar knots and reinforcement hoods and X Plaster floor coverings.

Renovation of the Villafranca building with the FerriTECHNIC structural reinforcement and restoration system

Ferri

Structural restoration and consolidation system | FerriTECHNIC
Ferri has developed a structural restoration and consolidation system called FerriTECHNIC through the use of a range of new-concept materials and innovative techniques that are more effective and easier to apply, such as structural mortars and concrete suitable for the restoration and consolidation of deteriorated walls and facades, where different structural and construction elements often coexist, such as reinforced concrete, plaster and exposed bricks, to the detriment of the stability and aesthetic value of the facades themselves. Moreover, due to the deterioration to which the cementitious plasters are exposed, even safety can be compromised with the consequent risk of plaster detachment and danger of collapse. CHARACTERISTICS The damage that can occur in a building are of varying nature and extent, depending on the case, the system for facade Renovation works on moisture stains, which can prevent annoying and harmful leakage into the building and cracks. The system for Armed Structural Reinforcement uses a series of products, from nets to mortars, bio lime and connectors made of glass or carbon yarn, which are also highly performing in seismic areas. When the reinforced concrete degrades, leaving the reinforcement no longer sufficiently protected and subject to oxidation and increase in volume, a proper Restoration of the Concrete requires good protection of the reinforcement with certified products. The fresh Structural Concrete with modern formulations known as self-compacting ensures a homogeneous and uniform appearance, which is not required. In addition, the range of products includes Connectors suitable for structural interconnections of masonry even in seismic areas.

System of slab consolidation
Negli interventi di ristrutturazione degli edifici in muratura, I solai hanno un ruolo fondamentale per il consolidamento statico e antisismico degli edifici, grazie alla formazione della cerchiatura perimetrale che evita il ribaltamento delle pareti e alla formazione della soletta collaborante interconnessa al solaio esistente che crea un piano rigido. In particolare, l’obiettivo è quello di realizzare interventi tali da ottenere il “comportamento scatolare” del fabbricato esistente. L’efficace collegamento tra i solai e le pareti è indispensabile per assicurare la continuità strutturale degli elementi portanti dell’edificio: al solaio il compito di ridistribuire al meglio le forze orizzontali sulle pareti, formazione del piano rigido, oltre a evitarne il ribaltamento. Caratteristiche La realizzazione di una nuova soletta collaborante leggera, collegata al solaio esistente grazie al contributo dei Connettori CentroStorico Legno, Acciaio, Calcestruzzo, Chimico e alla muratura con Connettore CentroStorico Perimetrale, incrementa la sicurezza antisismica dell’edificio. Inoltre, la nuova soletta collaborante in Calcestruzzo Leca, collegata al solaio e alle pareti esistenti tramite i Connettori CentroStorico e Perimetrale, consente di ridurre il peso gravante sulle strutturesino al 50% rispetto a una soluzione tradizionale. Grazie anche al contributo dei massetti e sottofondi alleggeriti Leca, il sistema assicura positivi effetti sia sulla riduzione delle masse oscillanti durante l’evento sismico che sull’aumento della portata utile del solaio.

Architectural Load-Bearing Structures Pillars of the Building Project

Load-bearing structures are essential to support the weight of a building and ensure its stability. They must be designed considering the specific needs of the building, such as the type of load they will need to bear, the climatic conditions of the area, and the available materials. For example, in taller buildings, more complex structures may be required to handle vertical loads and lateral wind forces. Innovation in construction technologies has led to significant developments in load-bearing structures, with the use of advanced materials offering strength and flexibility, such as reinforced concrete, structural steel, and composite materials.
