Question 10

What is building retrofitting?

Accepted Answer

Building retrofitting is the structural reinforcement of existing buildings to improve safety, load-bearing capacity, or seismic resistance. SVDC handles the three main retrofitting methods: carbon fiber (CFRP) reinforcement using Sealbond-accredited MAXICARB systems, steel jacketing for columns and beams, and concrete section enlargement. We also provide pressure-injection epoxy for crack repair.
