Masonry Repair and Reinforcement Anchor System
CINTEC Reinforcing Anchor System is a micro cement anchoring and reinforcing technique to repair and renovation existing buildings. The process begins with an inspection of the structure by a qualified CINTEC engineer. The best reinforcement pattern is then determined. The system is inserted into the structure in need of reinforcement. A specially developed, non-polymer, cement-like grout is injected into the sleeve under low pressure. Then, the grout fuses with the mesh, expands and shapes itself around the steel to fit the space.
