Structural Strengthening

Bridgecrete delivers proven structural strengthening solutions that restore capacity, extend asset life and meet all engineering and compliance requirements.

Proven & Trusted

Is your Structure Showing Signs of Distress or Reduced Load Capacity?

Bridgecrete delivers the structural strengthening Sydney engineers and certifiers rely on, addressing a wide range of structural deficiencies across residential, commercial and government buildings throughout Greater Sydney. With over 18 years of experience working alongside structural engineers and certifiers, our remedial teams deliver compliant, documented strengthening works that restore the integrity and capacity of existing structures.

Structural deficiencies can arise from a range of causes including original design inadequacy, deterioration over time, changes in use or loading, and damage from concrete cancer or impact. Left unaddressed, structural deficiencies present significant safety risks and ongoing liability for building owners. Bridgecrete works closely with your structural engineer to scope, deliver and certify structural strengthening Sydney assets can depend on long term.

Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Strengthening

Carbon fibre reinforced polymer systems are one of the most effective and minimally invasive methods of strengthening existing concrete elements. Bridgecrete's teams are experienced in the installation of CFRP laminates and fabric systems to beams, slabs, columns and walls, restoring flexural and shear capacity to engineer-specified requirements.

Epoxy Injection

Structural cracking in concrete elements compromises both the integrity of the structure and allows moisture to penetrate and cause further deterioration. Bridgecrete carries out low-pressure epoxy injection to structural cracks, restoring monolithic behaviour to the element and preventing further ingress and corrosion of reinforcement.

Post-Tensioning Repair & Reinstatement

Post-tensioned slabs and beams require specialist knowledge and care when undertaking remedial works. Bridgecrete's remedial teams have experience in the investigation, repair and reinstatement of post-tensioning systems including tendon replacement, anchor head rectification and grouting of failed ducts.

Steel Plate Bonding & Mechanical Anchoring

Where additional flexural or shear capacity is required, Bridgecrete installs steel plate bonding and mechanical anchoring systems to existing concrete elements. These systems are designed in conjunction with your structural engineer and installed to the specified requirements with full documentation and hold-point inspection records.

Column & Beam Strengthening

Columns and beams that have suffered deterioration, damage or changes in loading requirements can be strengthened using a range of systems including CFRP wrapping, concrete jacketing and steel encasement. Bridgecrete works to engineer specifications to restore structural capacity while minimising impact on the building's form and function.

Slab Strengthening & Void Filling

Voiding beneath slabs and reduced slab capacity due to deterioration or loading changes can be addressed through a range of grouting, void filling and strengthening solutions. Bridgecrete carries out slab strengthening programs across residential, commercial and industrial buildings with minimal disruption to operations.
