USE OF THE CORNER STRAP

Corner straps are specifically designed for the reinforcement and/or repair of concrete or masonry foundation wall corners and restoring the structural integrity to damaged foundation corners. Individual straps are available for those not needing the entire Corner Stitching Kit.

In addition to the repair of concrete and masonry foundation wall corners and edges, the Corner Strap can be used for any concrete or masonry wall repair where a 90o structural repair or reinforcement is needed.
DESCRIPTION:

The pre-preg, pre-cured corner straps are designed based on steel plating systems. They follow ACI design guideline in being slightly less than 90 degrees. (The function of bend amount is to carry load around corner.)This has the advantage over wet lay up systems in that the bend is certified in factory. The corner product represents a low profile bearing tendon to distribute load horizontally. Corners can be produced in various plates or solid carbon,glass aramid or grids.Tensile strength and modulus are a function of tow size and layers.

ADVANTAGES:
  • Low profile and can be installed behind brick facade or other building facades.
  • Legs or overlaps can be added to extend loads
  • Parge coats and painting can be used for aesthetics
  • Installs in same fashion as straight carbon plate or grids
  • Reduces or illuminates contractor error in bending FRP to far to carry load
  • Most corners are manufactured with peel-ply technology
