MasterBrace LAM
A high Strength and High Modulus Unidirectional Pultruded Carbon Fiber Laminates
Description:
MasterBrace LAM is high strength or high modulus unidirectional pultruded carbon fiber laminates in MasterBrace® FRP System.
Where is MasterBrace LAM applied:
Increasing the flexural strength of the concrete beams
Increasing the flexural strength of the concrete slabs under heavy machine loads
Increasing the rigidity of the beams and slabs against bending deformations
Increasing the flexural strength of the concrete slabs damaged with ventilating channel openings, stairs and elevator holes etc.
Increasing the flexural strength of the concrete beams and slabs under increased service loads (change of usage etc.)
Decreasing disturbing effect of the vibrations on the slabs caused by mechanical equipment
What are the advantages of MasterBrace LAM:
- Light and easy to carry
- Easy to cut and re-shape
- Easy to design (Unidirectional laminates and
similar elasticity modulus with steel)
- Does not increase the dead load of the
structure
- Decreases the bending deformations in the
slabs and beams
- Flexible application method allows building operation to continue
