Makro Sailuad – Load Capacity Enhancement Using SMARTFIBER-SHEET UT70-30
Project Overview
Makro Sainluad, a large-scale wholesale retailer, required a structural upgrade to increase the building’s live load capacity from 600 kg/m² to 900 kg/m². This enhancement was critical to support increased product storage and ensure operational safety across the facility.
Material Used: SMARTFIBER-SHEET UT70-30
To achieve this, engineers selected SMARTFIBER-SHEET UT70-30, a high-performance Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) system specifically designed for structural strengthening.
Key Features:
- Tensile strength up to 3,100 MPa
- Lightweight and flexible for surface adaptability
- Corrosion-resistant and durable
- Enhances structural load capacity without increasing dead load
🛠️ Execution Process
- Structural assessment of existing slab conditions
- Surface preparation and cleaning for optimal adhesion
- Installation of SMARTFIBER-SHEET UT70-30 using epoxy bonding
- Post-installation verification with Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
✅ Project Outcomes
- Live load capacity successfully increased to 900 kg/m²
- Safe and reliable slab performance under high loads
- No need for invasive demolition or reconstruction
- Extended structural life span and readiness for future demand
