Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9707289A1] Masonry arches are reinforced by forming substantially horizontal grooves (10) in the masonry above the arch (1), forming substantially vertical grooves (11) in the masonry at each side of and/or above the arch (1), and embedding a reinforcing rod (10', 11') or bar in a grouting composition in each groove. Bridges are also reinforced by forming grooves (15, 16) longitudinally and transversely in the intrados, and embedding a reinforcing rod or bar in each longitudinal groove and in each transverse groove in a grouting composition. The transverse rods or bars (16') reinforcing the intrados may be laid against a first layer of longitudinal rods or bars (15'), and a second layer of longitudinal rods or bars (15") are laid against the transverse rods (16").
