Structural Strengthening

Reinforcing Integrity. Extending Life.

As structures age or are subjected to increased loading demands, seismic activity, or construction flaws, their structural capacity may diminish over time. Ethios Group offers comprehensive structural strengthening solutions that restore and enhance the load-bearing performance of buildings, bridges, industrial facilities, and infrastructure—without full-scale demolition or reconstruction. We use modern strengthening techniques that are minimally invasive, time-efficient, and proven in performance, ensuring your structure regains both safety and serviceability.

Our Strengthening Techniques Include

‍

Carbon Fiber Wrapping (FRP Wrapping) - High-strength Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites are wrapped around columns, beams, slabs, and shear walls to increase load-bearing capacity, ductility, and seismic resistance. This method is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and ideal for rapid retrofitting in operational buildings.
‍
Micro-Concreting - Used to restore damaged or deteriorated concrete sections, micro-concreting involves the application of non-shrink, flowable cementitious material to fill voids and honeycombs in structural elements. It provides excellent bond strength and long-term durability.
‍
Concrete Jacketing - This traditional method involves encasing existing columns, beams, or foundations with new layers of reinforced concrete. Jacketing enhances cross-sectional area and strengthens the member’s ability to resist axial loads and moments. Often combined with bonding agents and dowel bars for integral action.

Typical Applications

Weak RCC columns and beams – To restore or increase load-bearing capacity.

Seismically vulnerable structures – For improved earthquake resistance.

Overloaded slabs and floors – To support increased live or dead loads.

Bridges and flyovers – For capacity enhancement and fatigue resistance.

Damaged or deteriorated concrete members – To regain structural integrity.

Buildings undergoing functional change – To meet new design or usage requirements.

Key Benefits

Faster and more economical than reconstruction.

Compatible with modern materials and repair systems.

Restores structural safety without dismantling.

Minimally disruptive to building occupants or operations.

Enhances performance against future stresses, including seismic loads.

At Ethios Group, our approach begins with a detailed structural assessment, followed by the recommendation of the most suitable strengthening technique tailored to your project’s requirements. With expert engineering, advanced materials, and skilled execution, we ensure your structure stands stronger—for longer.
