Hybrid seismic reinforcement method
It is a seismic resistance construction method that joins seismic braces using two methods: epoxy resin and anchors.
Compared to conventional methods, the number of post-installed anchors can be reduced, and since roughening of the existing structure is unnecessary, noise, vibration, and dust can be minimized, allowing for construction while occupied. The increase or decrease in the number of post-installed anchors to the existing framework ensures reinforcement effects as needed. Due to the indirect connection with head-studded studs, a secure lap length can be guaranteed, resulting in high quality. This method can also be used as a steel brace with openings.
basic information
■Overview of the Construction Method A joining steel plate with head-attached studs is welded in the factory to the inside of the existing structure and bonded with epoxy resin. Post-installed adhesive anchors are placed as needed. A framed steel brace is installed. Cage reinforcement using axial bars and stirrups is placed between the joining steel plate and the framed steel brace. Non-shrink mortar is injected.
