Earthquakes commonly
evoke ancestral fears
and a deep sense of helplessness, due both to people safety and material goods preservation
What is ARMOX®?
ARMOX® is the first plaster of the world which, thanks to SISMASAFE FRM (Fibre Reinforced Mortar) patented technology, revolutionizes masonry buildings anti-seismic reinforcement.
ARMOX® is recommended both for increasing strength during earthquake in anexisting building and for place on safe deteriorated and cracked masonry structures by previous quakes
How does it work?
ARMOX® is a structural plaster for the reinforcement of masonry walls lack of flexural and shear resistance.
Mechanical behavior is increased by the high bending strength which permits to transfer stress among structural elements (bricks and/or concrete).
Benefits
The world's first certified plaster for seismic strengthening, compatible with historical buildings preserved by the authorities.
Very high energy absorption through a hardening post-cracking behavior under shear and bending stresses.
Retrofitting costs are reduced by 30%.
The application works only from the outside the buildings, so no disturbance is caused to residents and extraordinary speed of intervention.
Ideal to strengthen already damaged buildings.
The use of ARMOX® does not lead to any additional static load on the building.
