Thor Helical Remedial Lateral Restraints provide a strong, cost-effective solution for stabilizing buckling brick walls caused by excessive vertical loads and inadequate mechanical connections between perimeter walls and the building’s main structure. These low-disruption repairs effectively reconnect and strengthen walls, ensuring long-term stability.
Key Features:
✔ Strong & Durable Repair System – Provides structural reinforcement for weakened masonry. ✔ Virtually Invisible Once Installed – Minimal impact on the building’s appearance. ✔ Cost-Effective Solution – More affordable and less invasive than alternative reinforcement methods. ✔ Minimal Disruption – Strengthens walls without major construction upheaval. ✔ Efficient Load Distribution – Transfers and dissipates buckling forces into the main structure.
Types of Lateral Restraints:
Perimeter Wall Restraints – Secure perimeter walls to stable floor diaphragm structures or stud walls.
Masonry Facade Restraints – Strengthen connections between masonry facades and perpendicular walls (e.g., partition walls and party walls).
Thor Helical Remedial Lateral Restraints provide a robust, reliable, and long-lasting solution for masonry reinforcement, preventing further movement and maintaining the structural integrity of buildings.
