Cintec’s Structural Anchors and Masonry Structures

WE DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE THE WORLD’S MOST INNOVATIVE STRUCTURAL ANCHOR AND REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM

As the designer and manufacturer of the pre-eminent structural anchor solution for masonry structures, Cintec™ has cemented its reputation internationally. For  over a quarter of a century, Cintec™ has secured and reinforced historic and historical buildings, masonry structures, monuments, railway structures, retaining walls and harbour walls using structural anchors.

The Cintec™ structural anchor offers a remarkably versatile, proven approach to internally strengthen masonry buildings and structures. The patented Cintec™ structural anchor system is straightforward: injecting a proprietary cementitious fluid grout into an anchor surrounded by a fabric sock, which has already been placed in an oversized drilled hole. The structural anchor system’s ingenuity lies in its versatility. Drawing on decades of experience and testing, our designers can customize it to any specification.

The fire resistant structural anchor is designed specifically for the loads and configuration of each application. Cintec™ designs generally use structural anchors that are non-corrosive metal, typically stainless steel in various grades. Our engineered solution reinforces an array of materials—stone, concrete, clay, terra cotta, adobe, and even timber. It can be used under water and in weak substrates.

Even as it restores, stabilizes, strengthens, and repairs, the structural anchor system does not compromise the parent material. And because the structural anchor system becomes part of the masonry structures, it does not visibly alter a structure’s appearance.

From intricate wall ties to solid bar anchors over 30 metres (100 feet) long, Cintec™ will develop the reinforcement and masonry anchor solution that will fit your project.

The Cintec™ structural anchor offers almost limitless possibilities for strengthening, stabilising, anchoring and repairing masonry structures and other structural elements in buildings. Whether the goal is to solve an existing problem or to prevent future ones, the Cintec™ structural anchors can prevent failure in masonry structures from many types of peril: fire, earthquakes, freeze-thaw cycles and weathering. The Cintec™ structural anchor can help restore and maintain structural integrity of a masonry structure, with minimal intervention and generally quick installation.
