​MasterBrace Fibre 

Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) system for structural strengthening of concrete and timber structures

​

How does MasterBrace Fibre work?

MasterBrace Fibre sheet reinforcement materials are enveloped in MasterBrace 4500 resin to yield a range of high performance composites with many features.

Recommended uses:

• Flexural and shear strengthening elements that may not be planar (flat)
• Increasing compressive strength via axial confinement of columns
• Seismic retrofitting of columns and piles for earthquake resistance
• Enhancement of fatigue resistance under repetitive loading conditions
• Walls, beams, slabs, silos, chimneys, tanks, pipes, tunnels, piles etc

What are the benefits of MasterBrace Fibre?

MasterBrace Fibres (in general)

• Lightweight and durable - Easy to apply and non-corroding
• High strength to thickness ratio – does not interfere with widths or thicknesses of members non-obtrusive

MasterBrace Carbon Fibre

• Increased strength- for Flexure, Shear, Confinement & Fatigue enhancement and end anchoring of MasterBrace Laminates

MasterBrace Aramid Fibre

• Increased strength for -Impact resistance or Blast (Explosion) resistance
