Canberra, Australia
Project Background
The Australian national museum is an iconic building located in the heart of the national capitol. New extensions meant that a structural strengthening solution was required to ensure the infrastructure maintained its integrity.
Project Requirements
The Engineers on the project designed a structural strengthening solution using Carbodur laminates to effectively line a load bearing beam to protect against the new shear loads that would be placed upon it following the renovations to the Museum.
Sika Solution
The builders Built Pty Ltd engaged Slabtec to implement a solution utilising Sika Carbodur S1214 laminate and Sikadur 30 to be placed along the beams to increase the load capacity. The S124 strips were placed side by side to increase load performance.
