Structural Steel for Concrete Strengthening
Often structural or steel plates are added to concrete structures to allow them to carry additional loading. In most applications the steel plates are bonded to the concrete by means of epoxy adhesives, and in addition to bonding, it is a good practice to also bolt the steel plates to the concrete.
While this process is relatively labour and equipment intensive, there are many applications where the use of steel plates is the best alternative for structural strengthening.
