Prestressed carbon plates are bonded to concrete components through epoxy adhesives and prestressed to form a new force balance, which can effectively reduce structural deformation, control crack development, and improve structural bearing capacity and rigidity. With the development of technology, the demand for durable maintenance monitoring of bridges has gradually increased. In response to this demand, Horse has further developed:

Intelligent prestressed carbon fiber plates

Intelligent prestressed carbon fiber plate monitoring technology integrates reinforcement and monitoring by embedding optical fibers and sensors in carbon fiber plates, realizing dynamic monitoring of stress-strain changes, prestress loss and other data of carbon fiber plates. It can effectively control the tensioning process, diagnose and predict the health status of bridges, and conduct long-term detection.

Pain point hit: 

4 major problems VS hard-core solution of smart carbon plate

1) The deflection of the bridge is too large, and the traditional reinforcement requirements cannot be met!

Active reinforcement: Compared with passive reinforcement such as bonded steel and carbon cloth, active reinforcement reduces deflection and deformation, effectively reducing or closing cracks. Tensioning stability: Anchoring efficiency coefficient ≥ 90%, 18,000 tensioning without unanchoring, suitable for narrow beam scenarios, easily cope with complex working conditions

2) Without unloading the live load, the construction period is pushed to the limit!

No unloading construction: the live load on the reinforced structure can be left unloaded, and the modular equipment is light and efficient

The construction period is greatly shortened: compared with prestressed steel strands, no large equipment is required, the process is simple, and the reinforcement can be completed in a short time

3) If hidden dangers cannot be detected after reinforcement, the risk of being blamed is high!

Real-time + remote monitoring: embedded fiber optic sensors, real-time feedback of cracks, deformation and temperature difference by uploading wavelength data, real-time monitoring of the tensioning process

Acceptance comes with "insurance": a healthy portrait of the carbon plate throughout the process, eliminating "hidden dangers after completion", clear responsibilities and no blame

4) It must be durable and not require rework for many years!

Super long life and low maintenance: Carbon fiber is corrosion-resistant and fatigue-resistant, and the maintenance cost is almost zero

The overall cost is greatly reduced: compared with steel strands, it saves labor costs + equipment rental fees + basically no need for post-production
