Carbon fiber technology was originally used in the military and aerospace industry because of its high strength and ability to resist elongation.

  • Area to be repaired is cleaned and roughed up with a grinder to allow for adhesion of straps.
  • Open cracks are cleaned out and filled with hydraulic cement or RCF Structural Epoxy Injection Resin.
  • Carbon fiber straps are adhered to the wall using an epoxy, spaced out as necessary.
  • After the epoxy cures, the wall can be painted, allowing the straps to blend in visually with the surface of the wall.
