Project Description:
Carbon Fibre Strengthening and Concrete Repair works were carried out at Swansea University. A brand new campus still under construction by Vinci suffered from a small fire within one of the pre-cast concrete accommodation blocks. Extensive damage was caused to the slabs that resulted in spalling concrete and loss of strength. Fibrwrap UK were commissioned by Keegan Pre-cast from Ireland to repair the concrete with a high strength polymer modified mortar and apply our Tyfo SCH Carbon Fibre Systems to replace the losses.
