Routine bridge inspections identified aging reinforced concrete support columns and girders exhibiting early signs of structural deterioration and increased loading demands from modern traffic volumes. Transportation officials required a strengthening solution that would restore structural performance while minimizing lane closures and disruption to motorists.
Our restoration specialists installed engineered CFRP wrapping systems around bridge columns and applied carbon fiber laminates to critical structural members. The lightweight reinforcement significantly improved flexural and shear capacity while providing corrosion-resistant protection without increasing the bridge’s dead load.
