PBO-MESH 22/22
Bi-directional 22+22 g/m² PBO mesh for FRCM strengthening system with inorganic matrix
Pbo-Mesh 22/22 is an FRCM structural strengthening system
with bidirectional PBO mesh and a stabilized inorganic matrix
for reinforced masonry constructions. The limited weight of PBO makes it suitable for applications especially on masonry for wrapping vaults or masonry walls. This strengthening system does not use epoxy resins and its performance equals that of traditional FRP with carbon fibers and epoxy binder.

COMPONENTS OF THE SYSTEM:
PBO-MESH 22/22
Bi-directional 22 g/m² PBO fiber in warp
and 22 g/m² in weft available in one height:
- 100 cm (roll length 15 m).
MX-PBO Masonry
Stabilized inorganic matrix specific for
applications on masonry supports (in
compliance with the EN 998-2 Standard).
PROPERTIES OF THE SYSTEM
- Increases the shear strength of masonry panels,
the bearing capacity of columns and pillars,
and the elimination of the formation of hinges
on arches and vaults, favoring the redistribution
of tensions within the structure. - Increases the shear strength of masonry panels,
the bearing capacity of columns and pillars,
and the elimination of the formation of hinges
on arches and vaults, favoring the redistribution
of tensions within the structure. - Maintains the normal breathability of the substrate
and excludes the formation of superficial
condensation, a possible source of deterioration
for the wall decorations present.
FIELDS OF APPLICATION
- Consolidation of vaults;
- Shear and bending reinforcement of masonry with respect
to the actions in and out of the plane. - Wraps around slabs between floors and on corner joints of
wall bays. - Seismic retrofitting.
- Increased resistance to simple bending and combined
compressive and bending stress of columns and beams. - The replacement of regular reinforced slabs with slabs
reinforced with fiber glass, or welded wire mesh. - Improvement of the ductility of the joints between
beams and columns through wrapping.
