MUNGTHONG THANI – Structural Reinforcement of Car Park for Data Center Transformation
Project Overview
The MUNGTHONG THANI project involved the transformation of an existing parking structure into a secure and high-capacity Data Center. To achieve this, reinforcement of parking slabs and beams was carried out using high-performance composite systems.
Materials Used
✅ SMARTFIBER-STRIP TL1012
A unidirectional carbon fiber strip applied to key tension zones:
- Tensile strength over 2,400 MPa
- Lightweight and corrosion-resistant
- Applied to the underside of beams to improve flexural capacity
✅ SMARTFIBER-SHEET UT70-30
High-tensile unidirectional carbon fiber sheet for slab reinforcement:
- Over 3,100 MPa in tensile capacity
- Adaptable to complex surfaces
- Boosts both shear and flexural strength
🛠️ Installation Process
- Clean and prepare the concrete substrate
- Apply fiber systems using high-strength epoxy adhesive
- Perform non-destructive testing (NDT) to ensure adhesion and structural integrity
✅ Project Outcome
- Structural adaptation achieved without invasive construction
- Increased loading capacity for Data Center functionality
- Cost-effective and time-saving solution with minimal disruption
- Complies with safety and engineering standards for critical infrastructure
