An Introduction to Resin Injection
Suffering from damage and cracks in your concrete, brick, or masonry structures? You may require the help of expert resin injection services. Condor Projects Ltd has successfully undertaken several resin injections projects over the last 20 years.
In this blog, we’ll look at resin injection, explaining what it is, how it works, and who might need resin injection services.
What is resin injection?
Resin injection is used to repair a variety of damaged structures. It helps to raise, support or level damaged and sunken structures or foundations. It does this by injecting an expanding resin mix into the structure which then fills any cracks, gaps, and voids to improve stability and structural integrity.
This can help increase the longevity of the structure and help to prevent further damage, slumping, or even potential collapse.
Why choose resin injection?
When it comes to stabilizing structures, there are a few options, each with its own benefits and limitations. For example, a similar outcome could be achieved with pressure grouting, shotcrete, rock anchors, soil nailing, and dowelling.
Resin injection is best suited for stabilization projects where soil nailing or other methods of stabilization wouldn’t be possible. This could be due to limitations in space, the type of structural damage that has occurred, or it simply wouldn’t be appropriate for the type of structure that needs to be repaired.
Who might need resin injection?
If you require stabilization or structural repair, it may seem confusing as to which type of repair is best suited for each specific situation.
Resin injection is best suited for a range of repairs including.
- Masonry structures
- Brick structures
- Concrete structures
- Steel fabrications
- Basements, shafts, culverts, tunnels, sewers, and floor slabs
- Bridges
- Carparks
- Embankments (void filling and vermin control)
