Bay to Bay Waterproofing & Restoration offers several services that manage, repair, restore, and in new construction complete and protect the steel within the structure of your project. Below is a list of these services with their descriptions:

STEEL SPLICING & REINFORCEMENT:

Steel splicing in reinforced concrete involves joining separate steel reinforcement bars (rebars) to create a continuous length, transferring forces between them.This is crucial for maintaining structural integrity when rebar lengths exceed what's available or when creating complex shapes.Common methods include lap splices, mechanical splices, and welded splices, each with its own advantages and considerations.

Considerations for splicing are key in understanding why splicing could be needed, commonly: cost, efficiency, design, corrosion resistance, construction practice, and material properties. Methods of splicing commonly include: Lab splicing, Mechanical splicing, and Welded splicing.

POST TENSION & PRESTRESSED CABLE REPAIR:

Post-tension and prestressed cable repairinvolves assessing, repairing, or replacing damaged tendons (steel cables) in concrete structures.This is crucial for maintaining structural integrity and preventing catastrophic failure, especially in buildings, bridges, and parking garages.Techniques include locating broken tendons, repairing or replacing them, and addressing surrounding concrete damage.

Prestressed Concrete involves stressing tendons before concrete is poured, often used in precast elements. While Post-Tensioned Concrete involves stressing tendons after concrete has been poured, offering design flexibility and allowing for thinner slabs and longer spans.

The common problems and causes that require these repair systems are: Corrosion - Water intrusion can lead to tendon corrosion, weakening the steel. Accidental Damage - Drilling, cutting, or impact can damage tendons. Deterioration - Wear and tear, aging, and environmental factors can contribute to tendon failure.

WELDING SERVICES:

Bay to Bay Waterproofing & Restoration offers commercial welding services which encompass a wide range of metal fabrication and repair solutions.These services are crucial for construction and infrastructure projects, often involving structural steel, custom metalwork, and on-site repairs.

Our commercial welders are experts in: structural steel fabrication, custom metal fabrication, and industrial & pipe welding.
