Corrosion Resistance In Structural Pools

The high-strength carbon fiber used against corrosion and aggressive conditions, presents to this material as a great alternative for structures that live in these environments .

This is the case of large structural pools, a market that is expanding in our country, which require large thicknesses of concrete as protection of existing armor because of the likelihood of water infiltration into the armor, with the risk corrosion associated .

The incorporation of carbon fiber mesh format instead of the traditional armor design allows this type of structures with thicknesses less concrete, increase the useful life of the structure and reducing the costs of construction and maintenance of these large structural pools .

Similar is the case for structures subjected to aggressive environments, as associated with the shipbuilding industry or mining, where traditional armor should consider large coatings to extend the life of the structure.
