QuakeWrap® GU50C
Product Description
QuakeWrap® GU50C is a high-strength unidirectional pultruded laminate constructed with carbon fibers. The CFRP laminates are bonded to the substrate using QuakeBond™ 220UR (Universal Resin). The laminates are ideal for strengthening concrete, wood, and steel structures.
Typical Applications
- Increased live load capacity in buildings and bridges, floors, roofs, etc.
- Seismic retrofit of structural elements such as columns, unreinforced masonry walls, etc.
- Repair of large diameter pipes to achieve strengthening and water-proofing.
- Repair of damaged structural system: new openings in floors, removal of existing walls, etc.
- Correction of design or construction errors: misplaced reinforcing bars, insufficient structural depth.
Features
- Very strong and lightweight laminates ideal for confined spaces.
- Used for flexure and shear strengthening.
- High modulus of elasticity.
- Fully compatible and excellent adhesion to QuakeBond™ resins.
- Non-corrosive.
- Light weight does not alter mass and dynamic loads on structure.
- Alkali resistant.
- Thin sections can be easily crossed and overlapped.
