Structural bonding adhesives from Sika are capable to support high mechanical stresses in order to prevent the possibility of joint fracture due to impact or crushing forces.  

Structural Bonding in the construction market includes all solutions for bonding of components to various substrates such as concrete, natural stones or hollow blocks using structural adhesives.
Structural Bonding can be classified in

  • Rigid Bonding: e.g. bonding of large scale concrete segments during segmental bridge construction work)
  • Structural Strengthening: strengthening of concrete structures with fiber-reinforced polymers)
  • Anchoring (fixing of steel rods or steel bars with chemical anchors).

Structural Strengthening

The use of a building or civil engineering structure may change throughout the course of its service life - for example, its function can change, loads can increase or higher building standards become required and the structure must be made compliant. Historical or landmark structures may need to be reinforced in a discrete way without impacting the original design or forms.

Structural Bonding

Construction sites are changing and modular building is one of the predominant trends in modern construction. Instead of building work being carried out entirely on site, structural modules are increasingly being prefabricated using automated processes and assembled at the construction site. Sika adds value to this trend. With the company’s experience construction processes can be industrialized, efficiency enhanced and standards raised.
