STRUCTURAL REPAIRS & STABILISATION

Religious buildings have traditionally been built from long
lasting materials, but despite the original quality long exposures
to harsh climates can ultimately cause major problems to their
structures. These buildings often have high and massive
unreinforced masonry walls and buttressed towers, built with
multiple layers of stone, brick and rubble. Engineers and
building conservation experts faced with the special problems of
great religious buildings are pleased to use the Cintec grouted
anchor system which is installed entirely within the fabric of the
structure, leaving no visible change to the outward appearance.
