Cintec Anchors
The Cintec Anchor System is a versatile method of structural reinforcement tailored to meet the specific strengthening and repair requirements of individual projects. From historical buildings and monuments to bridges, high rise blocks and harbour walls, Cintec Anchors have a worldwide reputation for resolving the challenges of structural preservation, whilst remaining sensitive to the original architecture.
The reinforcement system comprises a steel bar enclosed in a mesh fabric sleeve into which a specially developed grout is injected under low pressure. Installation is via precisely drilled holes using wet or dry diamond coring. The flexible sleeve of woven polyester restrains the grout flow and expands to up to twice its previous diameter, moulding itself into the shapes and spaces within the walls. This provides a mechanical bond along the entire length of the anchor without the need for unsightly patress plates on the exterior of the structure.
