Olympus S.r.l.

Structural safety is one of the newest and most relevant issues of importance within the civil society. There are numerous structures that require structural reinforcement interventions and many are the seismic events that have affected and continue to affect the Italian territory over the years. And 'therefore it highlighted the need to ensure appropriate performance structures with current and numerous earthquakes standards. In this context that the use of composite materials consisting of high mechanical strength fibers and polymeric resins, which represent an innovative technology compared to traditional consolidation systems, ensuring countless advantages both from the technical point of view that practical. The FRP materials, in fact, thanks to the high mechanical strength and low impact on the structures in terms of weight, stiffness and geometry, represent an effective solution for the consolidation of concrete structures, masonry, wood and steel. The absence of oxidation phenomena, also, ensures high durability of these systems, eliminating the critical aspects typical of traditional interventions. The application of this technology field is very broad and is used in the improvement and seismic upgrading of existing facilities, bad or degraded or the local reinforcement of individual structural elements. Interventions possible with FRP systems are numerous and well-designed to ensure high ductility and strength structure. The Olympus-FRP line offers a wide range of resins and carbon fiber fabrics, glass, basalt, aramid and steel available in various weights and different frameworks. The laminae of carbon fiber pultruded are available in numerous sizes and elastic modules and also pultruded rods made of carbon fiber, glass and aramid fiber are present with a wide range of products.
