Structural Strengthening - Toowong Shopping Centre, QLD

BUILT

When a large retail tenant vacated Toowong Shopping Centre, QLD AU, the new tenant required a 100mm topping slab across the back of house area. Shown above is the structural strengthening solution utilised for the existing slab to bear the additional loads.

Beams were strengthened flexurally by applying 2 layers of 1.4mm carbon fibre laminates. Beam shear resistance was increased with the use of N20 shear bars with heavy washer plates. During this project, some cracking was uncovered and required to be injected. We took this on as part of our scope and ensured that we kept on top of timeline regardless of an increased scope. 

PT Wedging - Soda Factory, West End, QLD
HUTCHINSON BUILDERS

Due to the incorporation of travellators on this project, some sections of the structure needed strengthening to adjust to the change in loading conditions with the post tensioned slab being cut out. Installation of PT wedges and large scale concrete repairs were also added to the scope of works.

Carbon Fibre Laminates & Wrap + Crack Injection - All Hallows' School, Brisbane CBD - KANE CONSTRUCTIONS

Structural strengthening of multiple floors of the structure using carbon fibre laminates and unidirectional carbon fibre wrap, due to a shift in the structures loading conditions. Crack injection was also required on this project.
