Expert Column Jacketing Services for Strong and Durable Structures

Column jacketing is a critical technique used to strengthen and reinforce concrete columns that have weakened over time due to aging, overloading, corrosion, or structural defects. Columns are essential load-bearing components, and their deterioration can compromise the stability and safety of an entire building. Column jacketing provides a reliable solution to restore their structural integrity.

The process involves encasing the existing column with additional material, such as reinforced concrete, steel, or fiber-reinforced polymers. This added layer increases the column’s cross-sectional area, enhancing its load-bearing capacity and improving both axial and lateral strength. Carbon fiber wraps are often used in modern projects for their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and ease of installation.
