Repairs & Strengthing
BDS provides a professional service for repairs, strengthening and retrofitting, to ensure that durability issues do not reduce the service life of structures.
The first step in the selection of the most effective concrete repair technique is diagnosing the cause of failure, and ensuring that the technique used makes the repaired area resistant to this original cause of failure. If this is not done, the repair will fail; it is also likely that the damage will be extended to the adjoining parts of the structure.
Through inspection, testing and analysis, we formulate long term cost effective repair solutions based on a structural design life desired by the client. The solutions are them implemented through a mix of traditional repair practices, as well as advanced techniques and materials.
