HeliBar & HeliBond
HeliBar & HeliBond: cracked masonry is best stabilized by bonding HeliBar stainless steel bars into appropriate bed joints or cut slots. Tensile loads are redistributed along the masonry to minimize further developments of the crack which may occur when direct crack injection techniques are used.
Features:
- Austenitic stainless steel helical bars
- Combines great axial strength with flexibility
- Accommodates differential building movement
- No additional stresses introduced into structure
- Generates high tensile strength with mortar (new build only) or HeliBond grout
- Extremely economical compared with alternative methods
- May remover or reduce the need for mass underpinning
- Fully concealed once installed
