The strength of Polymer Concrete is over 10,000 PSI within a day or so. Depends on the temperature. If at 110 F, it will get to 10,000 within few hours, at 80 F will take a day and at 45 F will take few weeks. So the area needs to be heated, if it is too cold.
What is the performance of fiber reinforce polymer when subjected to compression? Since in this illustration poymer is being applied on bottom of ARCH of "Meeting street bridge". Bottom of arch is supposed to carry compression. Thanks in advance.
Hi, i know its an old video...but after you apply the black carbon wraps or the laminates..do you apply cement or does it stay like that and all you do is paint it after applying t with the epoxy thingy ?
+SrFulanoTal Normally the finished wrapping is covered with PU paint in order to avoid effects of UV (from sunlight). Epoxy also helps protect against moisture. In some projects where wrapping is done within buildings, fire protection mortar is also applied.
+SrFulanoTal , It can be top coated in variety of ways with different colors and for different purpose, such as UV protection, Fire Protection, abrasion resistance, impact resistance, Acid resistance,......If you have specific applications, send email to info@CarbonWrapSolutions.com and we will get back to you.
What my company would have us do, is wrap the bridge like such, and in order to protect it, we would rub another coat of apoxy on it when we are done, and throw Sand all over the entire thing and the sand will stick to it, and protect it, and pretty much hide it from being there and really gives it that concrete finish look. After the sand dries, you paint the entire thing and WALLAH!! 😁
That is correct, it requires very light equipment to do it, instead of heavy equipment, the material is very low cost and takes much less labor. The overall cost is much less and much faster operation than any other approach.
Actually the only reason we win deals, is because it is much more cost effective. The material is not that expensive these days and it requires much less labor
Let's inspect the bridge in another 10-20 years and check for the amount of debonding. Evey structure looks good when it's just finished construction / repair. It's the rate of degradation that we care about.

OK than do these Projects when the Weather, is nice and warm, you Have at least 8 Months of warmer Weather, in most places all over the World !!!
@@rogerhegemier8491 Actually we have done it in cold weather by tenting the structure. So by applying local heat, you can do it in cold places.
how is the CFRP coated after being cured? which material?
Excelent content! Greetings from São Paulo Brasil.🙂

MUCH MORE PROFESSINAL WAY & NEAT N FAST WAY OF REPAIRS.
Just Think of the Billions of $s in Labor and Material, this new Concept will Create !!! Just a Genius Thing !!!!
sir can we apply on steel beams.
Absolutely not
Yes, it can be applied to steel beams. It works great on the tension side. The surface prep is critical.
Great work, congratulations
Hello we are a profesional carbon fiber manufacturer. this is our English website:

Now 11 years later how has this carbon wrap held up?
All bridges are in compliance and doing well.
Interstate 40 at Sooner Rd. in Oklahoma needs this.

You can paint or texture it to any color.
@@WhatsTheDylBr0 that's a good idea.
I predicted this! When carbon fibre first came out ! We will be consructing buildings with large 3D printers and genetically modified silk worms next!

dung la hi tech! very good!
looks expensive.

What does it look like today.
Thank Sir 👍😊, God Heavenly Father Jesus Christ Joseph and Mary Blessings United States of America vs me today.
in Russia is worse off bridge beams
