PROBLEM: A 5 year old home developed a structural crack at the inside basement corner of the garage. The home owners required a strong repair which could be done from the inside. They did not want a steel beam or steel anchor installed at the corner. They also needed a lifetime warranty against any further movement or failure.
SOLUTION: EBR injected the crack with Fortress structural epoxy and then installed 4 preformed Fortress corner straps with 4' extensions. The 4' extensions overlapped each corner piece by almost 1' creating a monolithic connection and permanent bond. With the corner now stabilized the happy owners will be able to go onward with their plans to remodel the basement. This repair will all but disappear once it is painted !

Did you know that carbon fiber is 10 times stronger than a steel beam in tension? Carbon fiber requires no service once installed, as compared to wall tie-backs. Did you know that carbon fiber is as thin as a dime, can be painted, and almost disappears after painting? Did you know there will be virtually no loss of interior space once carbon fiber is installed, when compared to a steel beam? Did you know that Fortress carbon fiber contains cross woven Kevlar, which is utilized in Police bulletproof vests? Did you know the new Boeing jumbo jets will be made of carbon fiber, resulting in a stronger, lighter and more efficient airplane? The list goes on an on...but the bottom line is that carbon fiber, when installed properly by certified installers is one of the strongest and least invasive of all the repair methods out there. When getting a repair estimate be sure to call in experts well versed in all the methods of repair. There's a place and a time for every stabilization method out there, and now you know one more choice. |
