The Foreva® TFC BD 75, 150, 200 and 300 are a family of carbon fiber composite systems consisting of bi-directional fabric sheets available in different widths (75 mm, 150 mm, 200 mm and 300 mm) and resin or polymer matrix (a two-component epoxy resin used for impregnating the dry fabric sheets and binding the fibers together for the transfer of stresses).
The Foreva® TFC UD 75, 150, 200 and 300 are a family of carbon fiber composite systems consisting of uni-directional fabric sheets available in different widths (75 mm, 150 mm, 200 mm and 300 mm) and resin or polymer matrix (a two-component epoxy resin used for impregnating the dry fabric sheets and binding the fibers together for the transfer of stresses).
The Foreva® TFC Fiber Reinforced polymer composite systems are used to strengthen concrete, masonry, steel or wood structures. Its ease of installation and durable characteristics make it an economical solution to structural preservation and strengthening problems. The large range of Foreva ® TFC applications include seismic retrofitting, force protection, waterproofing, increase in column bearing capacity and strengthening in bending or shear for walls, beams and slabs. Its lightweight and noncorrosive characteristics make it suitable for strengthening or protection in areas with limited access or aggressive environments.
The addition of the ICC certified Foreva® TFC BD and Foreva® TFC UD products to its strengthening solutions allows Freyssinet, Inc. to provide Architects, Contractors, Specifiers, Designers and Owners an even broader range of strengthening services including but not limited to: free pre-engineering services, budgeting, supply and installation the Foreva® TFC BD or Foreva® TFC UD, as well as assistance to the Engineer of record, Architect or Owner during all phases of pre-construction and construction.
