Following the 2009 L’Aquila earthquake disaster, there is a noticeable increase in demand for strengthening beams and columns to improve buildings' safety against earthquakes. This can be achieved by repairing beams and columns located at high altitudes using on-rope interventions. The use of on-rope interventions is acceptable in case of earthquakes, while the use of scaffolding and work platforms may remain prohibited. Additionally, on-rope interventions can reduce both the cost and the amount of time spent working.
A concrete element that needs restoration or repair is usually an urgent matter that requires immediate action, precautions, and a great deal of attention to details in order to contain the damage as soon as possible.
Using the double/half rope safety technique, our specialized workers and technicians are able to immediately reinforce the structural elements, restoring security instantly without the need for scaffolding or work platforms, which may cause delays and extra costs. Moreover, the double/half rope safety technique does not obscure the scenery or reduce the visibility of the beauty of historical, artistic, or architectural buildings under restoration.
