Retrofitting strengthens a structure to meet modern standards, accommodate new loads or repair damage. Cadreatech specializes in practical and cost-effective strengthening solutions for buildings, retaining walls, tanks and industrial structures.
Our strengthening techniques include:
- Reinforced concrete jacketing for columns, beams and walls
- Steel plate bonding and section enlargement
- Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) wrapping
- Foundation underpinning and soil stabilization
- Shear wall addition and load path improvement
- Crack stitching and epoxy injection
- Strengthening for seismic or wind upgrades
Retrofitting may be required due to structural deterioration, poor workmanship, design errors, material degradation, increased loads, change of use (e.g., residential to commercial), or after fire and impact damage.
Cadreatech performs a detailed assessment before designing strengthening solutions. We then prepare construction drawings, material specifications, method statements and supervision guidelines.
Our retrofitting work ensures structures regain full safety, stability and durability — saving clients from expensive demolitions or unsafe occupation.
