Fibrwrap lunch and learn
Today's lunch & learn in our office was about Fibrwrap -- It's like a fiberglass (but carbon fiber) cloth they wrap around columns or bridge beams that need to be reinforced, and they add liquid epoxy. They can fix bridges and buildings a lot cheaper for structural upgrades or to meet current requirements for seismic forces. A little like bondo for buildings...lol...but carbon fiber like NASA uses for repairs. And they can do a clear version for historic repairs, like on sensitive masonry, or wood timbers or piers.
