Increase the load capacity of structural wall openings


The use of carbon fiber for strengthening of the openings of new or existing concrete structures has become a widely used and common repair for this application. Concrete restoration contractors who specialize in these types of repairs often comment on the obvious advantages of CFRP vs traditional strengthening methods.


The ultra thin profile of the reinforced composite can easily be installed around mechanical components that often prohibit traditional steel installations that are often invasive and heavy. Not only is carbon fiber 10x stronger than steel it's also significantly lighter. This is another distinct advantage when it comes to increasing the load capacity of structures without adding additional weight to it.
