STRUCTURAL REINFROCEMENT OF MASONRY ELEMENTS

Structural safety and seismic retrofitting of masonry buildings are issues of current and significant importance within civil society. Numerous structures require structural reinforcement, and numerous seismic events have affected and continue to affect Italy over the years. Therefore, the need has emerged for ensure adequate performance of the facilities to current regulations and to numerous […]

The OLYMPUS STONE FACED WALLS systems are based on the technique of reinforced repointing of the joints and is particularly suitable for the structural reinforcement of exposed masonry where, for aesthetic and conservation reasons, it is not possible to adopt traditional or innovative consolidation techniques that in any way cover the facing. This technique is therefore […]

The structural safety and seismic retrofitting of masonry buildings are issues of current and significant importance within civil society.

The composite materials of the FRCM Olympus STONE line can be used in interventions of structural consolidation of existing buildings. Thanks to the mechanical, physical and chemical properties of the systems, they are particularly suitable for the structural reinforcement of load-bearing walls. They can be used in seismic adjustments and improvements or in local repair […]

The reinforced plaster systems CRM (Composite Reinforced Mortar) represents the modern evolution of the traditional reinforced plaster method. In recent decades, the technique of reinforcing load-bearing masonry structures using reinforced plaster made of fine-grained concrete, often cement-based, reinforced with electro-welded steel mesh, has become widespread. Over the years, this technique has shown its limitations and has […]

The historical and artistic heritage of our country is represented by numerous masonry structures, both for private buildings and for structures of monumental interest. Numerous structures require structural consolidation, and many seismic events have caused damage to buildings, necessitating restoration work. In order to guarantee masonry structures an adequate level of performance, OLYMPUS proposes the […]
