Applications
Sika CarboDur S is used to improve, strengthen, or repair the performance and durability of structures in the following applications:
Increased Load-Bearing Capacity
Increasing the load-bearing capacity of slabs, beams, and bridge sections
For the installation of heavy machinery
To improve the stability of structures subjected to vibration
For changes in building use
Damage to Structural Components Due to:
Deterioration of existing structural materials
Corrosion of reinforcing steel
Accidents (vehicle impacts, earthquakes, fires)
Improvement of service life and durability
Reduction of crack widths and damaged areas
Reduction of stress in structural reinforcement
Improvement of structural durability
Changes to Structural Systems:
Removal of walls and/or columns
Removal of floor and wall sections to create entrances or openings
Resistance to Potential Events:
– Increasing resistance to earthquakes, impacts, explosions, and other similar events
Repair of Design or Construction Defects, Such as:
Insufficient reinforcement
Insufficient structural depth
