NEWS ARTICLE ARCHIVESMasonary Crack Stitching Video with ThorHelical 6mm Reinforcement WireSIMPLE & DISCREET - NO REBUILDING - NO UPHEAVAL - NO MESS - NO FUSS BENEFITS Anchored across fractures the grouted helical crack repair ties generate excellent compressive and axial strength to reinstate the structural integrity of distressed masonry to its pre-cracked strength and to provide resilience against further cracking. Under axial loads the crack stitch tie becomes stressed within the wall. This torsional build up enables the spiral bar to progressively accumulate load & to disperse it at tangential angles to its helix along the full length of the reinforced zone to fully reinstate the structural integrity of distressed masonry and provide resilience against further cracking. The redistribution of stress along the rods full length alleviates the incidence of sudden and catastrophic failures. |
