For building repair and reinforcement, carbon fiber material can be used, which is 4.5 times lighter than steel, but 3 times more durable. What is the price of strengthening carbon fiber buildings after the 7.7 and 7.6 earthquakes in Türkiye? The citizens began to raise this question.

After the 7.7 and 7.6 magnitude earthquakes in Turkey, citizens are looking for various ways to make their houses earthquake resistant. Recently, carbon fiber reinforcement, which has been put on the agenda, has also received close attention from the public. In the earthquake in Turkey in 2009, under the leadership of Professor G ü ney Ö zcebe, a professor at the METU College of Civil Engineering, a building reinforced with carbon fiber materials stood still in Hatai, while many buildings without reinforcement collapsed.

Buildings that did not collapse in the earthquake are being investigated. Experts said that these buildings were reinforced with carbon fiber. Applying this method to buildings is also on the agenda in Istanbul. So what is carbon fiber reinforcement and how much does it cost?

What is carbon fiber?

Carbon Fiber is a polymer and is sometimes known as graphite fiber. It is a very strong material that is also very light. Carbon fiber is five times stronger and twice as hard as steel. Although stronger and harder than steel, it is lighter than steel; It makes it the ideal manufacturing material for many parts. These are just a few reasons why carbon fiber is preferred by engineers and designers for manufacturing.

Carbon Reinforcement Prices?

The cost and unit prices required for the strengthening of the building are among the most frequently asked questions by the residents who want to receive retrofit services. Can a clear figure be said for this cost? It is impossible to say the net cost in this regard, but the approximate order price can be said for information purposes. The retrofit cost is actually divided into two parts. First, the building retrofit design cost. This cost is lower than the retrofit application cost.
