Boonthavorn Nawamin – Department Store Reinforcement with SMARTFIBER-STRIP TL1012

Project Overview

     The Boonthavorn Nawamin project was initiated by Boonthavorn Retail Corporation, a nationwide leader in home improvement superstores. To accommodate expanded retail functionality, including escalator installation and increased live loads, structural enhancement was required. The design and scope were executed under the guidance of the appointed structural engineering consultant and design team.

Material Used: SMARTFIBER-STRIP TL1012

Following expert recommendations, the project used SMARTFIBER-STRIP TL1012, a high-tensile CFRP strip suitable for flexural reinforcement of large commercial structures.

Key Features:

  • Tensile strength > 2,400 MPa
  • Lightweight and fast to install
  • Increases flexural and shear strength effectively
  • Preserves the integrity of the existing structure

     

🛠️ Execution Process

  • Initial assessment and structural analysis by consultants
  • Customized reinforcement design by structural engineers
  • Installation of SMARTFIBER-STRIP TL1012 on key slab areas and slab openings
  • Final inspection using Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

     

✅ Project Results

  • Structural performance was enhanced to safely support escalators
  • Building strength improved without intrusive modifications
  • Long-term durability and efficiency achieved
  • Certification from engineering consultants confirmed compliance with structural safety standards
